Trying to Get Pregnant

Lexapro and lengthening LP?

My OB put me on Lexapro for PMDD.  This is first cycle I've taken it, and my cycle is whack.  I'm officially two days after my longest ever LP with BFNs and no AF.  I'm getting pissy.  Has anyone else ever taken Lexapro and had it affect their cycle?

Re: Lexapro and lengthening LP?

  • Longest LP is 16 days, average is dead on 14.  I'm on day 18 of my LP.  

    I absolutely understand the concept of "regular until you're not".  If it's just an irregular cycle, cool, I get it.  But it's REALLY coincidental...

    And I don't like coincedences.

  • I can't speak scientifically or medically, but in my own experience, Lexapro did not affect my cycles.

    It's just one anecdote, don't rest anything on it. I am reading the google machine, and according to that, antidepressants can in fact have an impact on your cycle.

    Yeah, I had googled it some this morning.  I had read that some others had been studied for it, but not Lexapro.  Figured I might get better insight here.  Plus once I google anything medical I find 8 million symptoms I have that mean I'm going to die tomorrow.
