After Opiate Addiction, How Soon Should I Expect to Get a Regular Menstrual Cycle?

Question by claraunhui: After opiate addiction, how soon should I expect to get a regular menstrual cycle?
[rewrite]I was recently addicted to opiates and have quit completely. I was using them for about a year and six months into my addiction I stopped having my menstral cycle. I have now been clean for over a month and have not had my menstral cycle start again. Has anyone had this addiciton or heard about it and have had it come back? Or is this a permanent thing that I have done to my body because of my drug addiction?

Congratulations on stopping. Did you go cold turkey?
It was almost 9 months before I had another period and I actually ended up having to go to the oncologist and get infused with iv iron. About 3 weeks later I had a period. Opiates are so hard on your body especially when you take them over a long period of time. When I went off of opiates I went on Suboxone. It has helped, I have relapsed once or twice but now I am back on the right track. Don’t trust yourself around them, I can’t. Good luck in your recovery. God Bless
