Sorry for the upper case word, I was just worried that my post may be lost among the other upper case posts!!
My period is very late and I am not pregnant...I am worried that its to do with Trazodone. I read that it can produce an increase in Prolactin that among other things causes periods to stop and causes breast tumors. has anyone else had this happen ? I am really worried, I am sick to my stomach actually...I don't want to get breast cancer.
Can anyone help, Thanks Janejj

I only take 50/100mg at bedtime.

If you're really worried perhaps it would be best to switch medications. There's no point in being on a med that causes you anxiety. Talk to your doctor about it - there must be something else you can take instead.Jackie

Hey there. Relax re. your period and it will come. I've been late sometimes and I am on the pill. I found that as soon as I stopped being so anxious about it that it came.
I take 75-100 mg of Trazadone at night and have never had problems with my menses from the medication.
What other meds are you on that might be causing the problem?
