Sertraline and periods

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hello ladies and gents,

So  I’ve been taking sertraline for just over two weeks and I’m due on my period. I felt crappy for about four days when starting my meds then I felt better for about a week. I’m now due on my period and my side effects have caused me to not sleep, feel low and anxious. Anyone else get this? 

Thanks x

    Hi. Hope it gets better soon. I always feel worse before my period, my gp says it's normal. X
