Question : Hello Dr. I am 52 years old should I be concerned with having my menstrual cycle suddenly STOP? It's been 3 months since my last one. I have always been on time. I am taking levothyroxin. I started taking Effexor extend capsules 75 mg. in July . Just real curious. My blood work all came back normal in July. Thanks for your expertise and input.
