“Over the counter medicines for irregular periods?”
Hello, I would like to ask if there are any available over-the-counter medicines that can be taken for treating irregular periods. I'm 20 years old and I've been dealing with this condition for almost years. I guess I have an irregular cycle of periods due to stress and weight loss. I'm also having difficulty gaining weight. I'm currently taking a beta-blocker for my heart palpitations almost every day and I would also like to know what medicines can cause period irregularities. I'm not taking any contraceptives and I don't have any plan to take them.

Weight loss & weight gain can affect your cycles. I also think about things like thyroid & if you haven’t had that checked, I would think about that. Stress can also affect a lot of things including weight. I don’t know of any specific over-the-counter meds that would necessarily help. The “pills” Would probably regulate your cycle. You have to make that decision. If you have not seen your gynecologist, it would be a good time to get an evaluation.
