Iud, zoloft, menstrual cycle changes

I've had an iud for almost 3 yrs now. My period has been extremely light, sometimes non-existent. But it dies come and go. I started taking 25mg zoloft about a month ago. This period I'm having now is much heavier, and brighter in color. Could that be from the zoloft? It reminds me more of the period I used to get before having kids. No pain or anything, just heavier and it keeps starting and stopping.

Anyone experience cycle fluctuations after staring an ssri like zoloft?

Yes it can cause changes to your period

Zoloft is a crazy drug. It can change so much of you on a physiological level. Also please know that the effects of Zoloft can be life long even after you stop taking it. I would discuss all concerns with GP or psychiatrist.

I have just been considering starting sertraline for anxiety and ptsd, and I haven’t heard about this before. It’s not come up in my initial research, and I’m not finding anything now. I’m thankful to the poster for putting this out there and and I appreciate you both responding. Is there any more info you can share or are there any resources you can point me to to learn more?

Maternity pay

I work for the civil service so will be getting 6 months full pay, then 3 months Stat pay which then drops to unpaid. Can you claim stat pay/maternity allowance when it goes to unpaid or are you not entitled to anything?
Thank you

BE REAL 💯

How often do you actually get time alone?

I feel like ‘alone time’ means something different once you’re a mom. What does it look like for you?

Am I wrong..?

Child’s father came forward and said he refuses to be involved until after the baby is born. This came after me asking for help during preparation.

Am I wrong for being upset?

My husband is hooked to this game

Is anyone else partner hooked to the game called Kingshot. My husband got hooked in to this while being home during his time off when our baby was born and ever since he has changed drastically. We barely talk, he is super distant and barely gives his kids any attention.

Does anyone here know anything about that dam app!
