Question:

Women on methadone for chronic pain, have you experianced any hormonal issues?

I have started Lactating (alot) and have not had a period since I began taking it. I know to speak to my doctor, I am just interested in finding out if anyone else has experiance this. When I researched side effects, I found a few things that barely hit on this, but it was very vague. Help!! It's freakin me out!!


Answers:

Not having a period is very common when taking opiates for long periods of time. But the lactating? I've not heard about that. Other hormonal issues can be emotional ones. You can feel completely crazed and it's due to the morphine. Yes, please talk to your doctor about the lactating....and all other symptoms as well.
