Anyone have period changes from Elavil??

For about the past year, I have been getting my period two days early like clock work.

I started Elavil in May. I love this medication as it has saved me from vaginal pain.

I am having an awesome week, very pain free, but my period is 3 days late. I know for a fact I am not pregnant...I have not had sex since October.

I was wondering if Elavil can screw with your cycle?

Have had vaginal pain on and off since 2002...but never was taken seriously until it got bad in Feb. 2009


Current Treatment:

Elavil (quitting b/c wait gain started to bother me & I needed a med that would also cover anxiety).
Cymbalta
Lidocaine 2%
OTC pain meds
Ice packs/heating pads
Vicodin (for pain emergencies)
Miralax
Physical therapy-I graduated!!


Praying for everyone's pain to stop

I do not have IC...just some how wound up with many of the related pelvic pain conditions.
