Thank you Maria
I mean they had me so upset and freaking out...My mother had regular cycles until her mid 50's. The only reason she had a hysterectomy was because of fibriod tumors of which I do not have. MY job is very stressful and with my medical issues together with that it no wonder after these injections that I am off right now. Thank you for your calming words....

Sorry no one was interested - maybe 10-15 years ago I would have been more interested but I will add that menapause sucks
     I realize you're concerned and yes, you should talk to your gyn but I think this will resolve itself in short order.

ditto
Sorry if I didn't initially reply~ I went thru menopause (or as I call it mentalpause) nearly 7 years ago and was very glad of it! Well actually going thru it was a pain though being through w/it has been GREAT!
As Dale mentioned I would still bring up the irregularity of your menses and mention the injections you're getting just to make sure your GYN thinks it's normal however I believe it's a more common experience than not when it comes to some irregularity of menses with various medications. Still keep your GYN informed.

it's off topic somewhat
I know it's off topic to a degree, but it was my spine injections that put this in motion. i am going to give it another 2 weeks and if it doesn't settle back to normal, then I will see my gyn. Thanks guys, Cheryl

Update
My cycle regulated on Feb 1st. I had facet injections 12/28 my period was due Jan 1st. It did not start, 2 weeks later I had spotting. Then I had the actual rhizotomy 1/13. Again two weeks later some spotting. They also gave me some steriod with the rhizotomy as well. Finall Feb 1st my period came. So it was 2 week intervals each time. So it is my experience that these types of injections can interfere with our cycles. It looks as though all is normal now. Thank you to those who helpd ease my concerns....

Cheryl i am glad everything worked out for you. I have endocrine problems which mess up; all my hormones and have had that type of spotting on and off for a few years. Yes, i blamed it all on the steroids that my body was hyper producing. Then my body stopped producing cortisol and another steroid all together . all effects my period. I don't know if i went through menipause or not, just steroid upheaval.
