Can taking hemostatic drugs delay menstruation?

Under normal circumstances, if a hemostatic drug containing ingredients that affect the endocrine system is taken, it may cause menstrual delay. However, purely coagulation-focused hemostatic drugs are unlikely to lead to delayed menstruation. The detailed analysis is as follows:

Certain ingredients in some hemostatic medications may bind to estrogen receptors in the body, indirectly producing estrogen-like effects, which can cause proliferative changes in the endometrium and consequently delay menstruation. Taking such medications may interfere with the normal menstrual cycle.

Some hemostatic drugs primarily affect clotting factors or coagulation function without directly impacting the endocrine system. These medications generally do not affect the menstrual cycle when used.

In special cases, if a woman experiences heavy bleeding during her period lasting for an extended duration, appropriate use of hemostatic drugs can help reduce blood loss and typically does not result in menstrual delay.

In addition, maintaining a balanced diet, engaging in moderate exercise, and avoiding excessive stress also contribute to sustaining a regular menstrual cycle.
