For all the ladies on the forum....
I am wondering if any of you experienced changes in your monthly cycles (whether you saw changes to your actual period, ovulation or mid-cycle) after coming off Cymbalta ?

I just had the worst cervix cramps in my life last night, but haven't noticed a change otherwise, but I was only on Cymbalta for 7 weeks. I've been off totally for about a week. Normally I'll get a twinge or two, but last night it was steady, intense pain and I had to fall asleep with a heating pad between my legs.

Thank you for your reply teemi. I am having UTI (bladder infection) symptoms also, so it could be that too. I saw my doctor about the bladder infection symptoms this morning, they are going to send the urine sample out for a culture and see if that comes back with anything.
I am experiencing symptoms that could either be due to a UTI or mid-cycle/ovulation symptoms that I have never gotten before, specifically blood in my urine. Sorry for being so graphic. Which could either be a sign of a bladder infection or breakthrough bleeding due to ovulation/mid-cycle.
I'm not sure if going off the Cymbalta could have created this new symptom, if its not a bladder infection.

Well guys and gals. Cymbalta is famous for causing PSSD (post ssri sexual dysfunction). If after stopping cymbalta for 2 months if the sexual dysfunctions continue then they are considered permanent. Please see;

This is the voice of experience, it does happen. If you have any questions let me know.

Sorry no help with this question as I've had hysterectomy many years prior to having been started on Cymbalta. TheEquuswoman

Jerseygirl921. .It's routine to have it plated. It's sad to say, although, you will be paying for the whole routine test anyway..so I'm glad he is following through...so just in case there is a bit of any infection starting you will be given an antibiotic to clear it up. UTI'S are so very very very common in females. Just happy you followed up on your female issues...Always always listen to what your body is telling you..you are the only one who know your own body..Have a nice restful evening..Carleeta,
The doctor actually did send the sample out for bacteria testing anyway...being that I have the classic uti symptoms plus lower back pain.... so we'll see what that says ..Thanks for the good wishes !

Oh goodness Fivenotions. Going out in public is hard enough during withdrawal without that! So sorry you are dealing with that. You can make it through this though.
