Can menstrual cycle stop after cortisone injection?

Cortisone injections generally do not disrupt the menstrual cycle or cause amenorrhea, the absence of menstrual periods. Cortisone, a type of steroid medication, primarily acts to reduce inflammation when used as an injection. Amenorrhea or menstrual cycle irregularities typically result from specific endocrine, reproductive, or hormonal imbalances rather than cortisone injections. However, the potential impacts of medication can vary. If you are experiencing changes in your menstrual cycle after receiving a cortisone injection and have concerns, it is advisable to consult your healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and management plan.
