Hi, if you observe your body, it is not the muscle, or fat, it is only the accumulation of the water, and puffy ness due to steroids, so also the side effects on the periods.
Try to decrease the obesity, by stopping the steroids, and can continue the rest. anemia might be one of the causes for irregular periods. consult a doctor for possible anemia, and have treatment.Don't worry there wont be any problem for pregnancy if you stop dexona. Thank you.
