CAN COCAINE CAUSE A IRREGULAR PERIOD? (menstruation)

To each their own, she's not hurting you, or any unborn child. Worry about your own body

Wow, I love how everyone on here is like "omg don't do that to your unborn child". She just asked if it could change up her cycle and obviously it does and most women get their period late while doing larger ounts of coke. She's just a little late and worried about it, not pregnant. You all need to chill.

Hi there. I really could not have put it better. It is so very easy for people who haven't got a clue what it is like to be an addict to judge.
I have been a heroin addict and crack user for the better part of 20 years, and you are so right when you say, that the people who understand the best are the ones who have been there. Where I used to live previously, I had a drug worker who was also an ex user, he was awesome, as I imagine you are. I am slowly sorting myself out. Previous new year I decided that I wanted to get clean by this new year. So I have been reducing my meth 2 ml a fortnight, getting down to 36ml. But I have had a bit of a blip this past month or so, and have gone back up to 45ml. I am going to get settled on this, get this blip under control and start reducing again. I really want to get back into my photography, photoshop, and really would like to get published, as I write short stories.
Anyone seeking advice or help with addiction clearly need support and not 'kicking while they are down'

I would like to extend on my original post. The poor lady who has lost family members to addiction, my heart goes out to you. As you have obviously taken the compassionate route. My parents chose to not really acknowlege my addiction, If I am short on cash and ask for help, they will buy whatever it is, rather than give me the cash. For which I am grateful. I have never done any of the things associated with addiction to embarrass them. By that I mean I have never robbed anyone, I have never shoplifted, I have never sold my body, I have never been arrested and I have never appeared in the local newspaper. I believe that you have to be capable of these things in the first place to actually do them, not the drugs making you do them. I have been an addict for the best part of 20 years, I have always worked and paid for my own drugs that way. If I did not have the money I would borrow it (always paying it back) and if I could not get the money then I would do without simple. I really do think that my parents have been quite harsh on me, as all I want of them in their love and support.
I have a friend who parents are the complete opposite. They divorced when he was 7. He is currently scripted so there is no need for them do give him the money that they do. His dad will give him at least £80.00 a day plus whatever he gets off his mum. He does not work, even though he does plastering and mechanicing as a trade. His dad has even had to remortgage his house because of the debts my friends has accrued. To me they are just enabling him, or he is threatening them that he will go stealing, shoplifting etc if they dont give him money. To me this shows a total lack of respect for his parents, and karma will be back round one day toput things right with him.
Even though I am not close to my parents, and it is their choice to not help me financially etc, I really could not treat them like that. And if I were the kind of person who could shoplift, rob etc, I know that it would mortify them were I to appear in the local newspaper etc.
People really are so different from one another, I mean what makes one addict sells their grannies blouse off her back, and another addict work and pay for their own. I really dont want to come across as being judgemental, that really is not my aim. I just wanted to show how I choose to live my life and how I pay (financially at least) for my addiction. Hopefully of which I am near coming to the end of. I have lost 20 years to addiction, the next 20 I would like to choose for myself how I live it.

I appreciate you and you are absolutely right. She is obviously looking for helpful feedback and I doubt she enjoyed having to write this post, but at least she is showing some concern and doing something about it. That is more than most could say. None of us know anything about her or what she is going through, so either answer the question without judgment or say nothing at all. Furthermore, I have experienced some irregularity in the past that could have been related to the use of cocaine but I would recommend to anyone with this question to take a pregnancy test or see a gyno as soon as possible. Ignoring the problem will only prolong your worrying. Best wishes. You have it in you to overcome anything as long as you believe in, and love yourself.

Thanks for the answer but nobody is stupid.. You don't have to criticize. I'm sure you're no saint.

Wow... I have no idea who you are but you're awesome just know that!

How you know the expensive of it I understand that it's addicted but the question is can it make your cycle irregular your answer is not supportive at all its like Nick picking they have counseling and help for that if you are a counselor advice is always good but if not just stick with the answer to the question at hand

Thank you for speaking out on this very painful subject. I am a mother of a beautiful 23 year old girl. She is in her first week of rehab that she voluntarily chose to do. She is suffering in this addiction and drowning in guilt. I pray to God my daughter comes home as the young athletic strong girl she used to be. Thank you again, your post helped me

After 3 yrs if no periods I use cocaine and I am bleeding wtf

That was the most useless response ever. Thank you for taking the time to deliver common sense/basic life skills.

she didn't say she was pregnant, nor ask for an opinion. BTW your grammar is horrible.

No one said there pregnant 

what if it's a little spotting? is that normal??

This is now the second month of me using again it's not an everyday thing but I'm once again a week late on my period and getting kinda concerned I took 3 pregnancy test last month because I was also a week late I had been using for about 5 months now and last month and this month are the only two times I have been this late for my period
