I Have Just Been Diagnosed With H Pylori. I Am
Question:
I have just been diagnosed with h pylori. I am on 3 different antibiotics to kill it. The doctor found several white dots all over my stomach lining and isn't sure what it could be. I was almost 2 weeks late this month for my period and about 5 months ago was diagnosed with cysts (can i catch a break?)
Im wondering if h pylori could cause my period to be late, and shorter?

Brief Answer:
Not caused by h pylori
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
Helicobacter pylori is not known to cause delayed periods.
You may need to do a pregnancy test first to know if you are pregnant or not.
Another cause for the delayed period can be the ovarian cyst you are having.
Hope I have answered the question.
