Im on mirtazapine and propronalol and have been for a year with no problems. ive been on citalopram for 4 weeks and my period is late by 5 days its sometime a day or two late but the tablet is the only thing thats different. i wonder if its affected any others like this. im having odd twinges but still no show. we use condoms as protection and only done it once (i know it only takes the one time) but ive lost my mojo abit anyway but im sure no problems with condom. help

    Very likely that the citalopram is the cause of this. Leave it another few days and do a pregnancy test if your period doesnt come

      i know it doesnt help worrying about it but so hard not to. just you know where you are when you get your period if you get what i mean

    I'm on week 9 taking citalopram, i usually have a regular period but I'm one week late now and I'm worried. I don't know if I am late due to the medication, the stress ive been through or something more serious. i havent had sex in a year too so im sure is not a pregnancy. Can someone help me, please?
