Symptom narrative

On 10/19/24 I received the Pfizer covid vaccine as well as my annual flu shot at a local Pharmacy at which point my menstrual cycle was about 2 or 3 days late to arrive. As soon as I got home from receiving the shots, literally no more than 5 minutes later because I left right away and the pharmacy is down the block from my house, my menstrual cycle came down heavily. Thereafter I ended up bleeding for 30 days until having to start hormone treatment with progesterone to get it under control. It is still not under control entirely it has been irregular ever since. I was thoroughly screened for cancer which was negative. I had a bilateral salpingectomy two and a half years prior which increased my pain and bleeding during menstruation initially but I all along had kept a regular schedule of bleeding every 28 to 35 days. I'm now at a place in my life if I miss a progesterone pill I will bleed long term with great difficulty to stop it.
