Chemo and its impact on menstrual cycles

I really hope things have already started settling back into a routine for you, at least it shouldn't take too long 😉 but honestly, my message to all the other girls and women out there is this... don't let the fear of that specific issue get to you during chemo. I guess I was acting a little strange myself, going through treatments and then having my cycle show up right on schedule every single time... though I suppose it might actually be easier if it just skipped a month once in a while, rather than dealing with that awful sensation when you get your period and then have to head straight to your infusion appointment the very same day. It’s definitely not as simple as people make it out to be.....
