I know I read here a few ladies had trouble with their menustral cycle being late, spotty or heavy etc... my question for you is did you continue to use it or did you choose to stop. I personally used it for 20 days and it was time for my period to start and it didn't it was late for two weeks but I had to stop taking it a week before it actually started. I was taking Solarary 1000 mg once a day.
 
I had similar problems wiith MSM. There are threads on here regarding this issue. I think it can depend on the brand and other things. The threads on here might be able to provide additional insight.
 
I was taking Trimedica MSM and I also experienced problems. It made my period longer and heavier which I did not need at all as it's already too long.

I bought liquid MSM a few months ago, but once my skin started acting up it went in the closet. It hasn't seen the light of day since.

MSM thins the blood and hence may make you bleed more during your period
 
I wonder why some people are getting adverse reactions and others not, could it be the brand, dosage or maybe everyone's body is different. I just hoped that it wasn't causing me bad reactions with my cycle because it is really good for the hair and skin as well.
 
i haven't had any bad side effects from taking msm. i just get kroger's brand, and take 1500mg (one pill)/day. the only thing i've noticed is that i sleep a lot deeper now and have very vivid dreams, which is nice. as for my period, i am on nuvaring, which gives me a light 2-3day period every month. msm has not affected that, either.
 
For me the benefits outweighs the risks. The last thing I need are heavier periods, I counteract this (the risk of heavier bleeding) by using unsulphered organic molasses. Regular molasses also have sulpher and will thin the blood and cause heavier periods.

MSM gave me HIVES!!! (as of just today!)

I have some MSM, and I knew I couldn't take it too long, but I could at least take it for a week or so. Unlike most here, I try to use it for my joints. I am a jogging and did a total of almost 20 miles last weekend, so my body was feelint it this week at work. Pretty much my hips!

Sooo along with my other vits, I have like 4 bottles of MSM (don't ask..); this was before I knew the stuff would break me out. Now I've used it for a sec in the past and I broke out in pimples for a short period of time, but I didn't think that I would have HIVES! All around my neck..*geesh*!! It's like having a bunch of tiny little ants crawl all around your neck area, and then you neck swells from the touching and wanting to scratch et...yikes! :wallbash:

Just think, I was at work dealing with this all day long, longing to get off and run to the store!


So this evening, I stopped at the grocery store and picked up some Benadryl. Gosh! I'm hoping this will reverse the effects by tomorrow morning for work.

What I am saying Ladies is MSM has MANY SIDE AFFECTS. Be careful if you should take this....
 
I tried MSM awhile back (there was a forum craze and I got caught up--lol). But quickly gave it up due to cycle problems. It wasn't worth it to me to try to stick it out.
 
I stopped. It wasn't worth it. Bad cramps got worse and my cycle was all messed up. It was coming heavier and earlier.
 
I just had my second cycle while taking MSM. Before taking MSM my cycles were heavy and lasted for 7 days. Now, my cycles are EXTREMELY heavy for the first two days, and only last for 5 days now.

I will continue to take MSM because it is controlling my cystic acne better than any antibiotic has. I can deal with the waterfall for two days if it means waking up with a smooth face. :yep:

That's interesting because I noticed that I had longer periods and more breakouts during the past few months, but I never knew why. My skin was getting better and I was freaking out! I think I'm gonna stop taking it for a while to see how my skin will react.
 
I just can't do it with the MSM. It made me have horrible nightmares and my period was always late. It just keeps me stressed out. No thanx
 
I tried it but had to stop because it made my period last for almost 2 months. I felt extremly tired all the time and my heart would franticly race no matter what i did. I went up 12 steps to get upstairs in my house and I nearly had a heart attack :lachen:. I was taken to the hospital and was prescribed some medicine that slowed it down but unfortunatly it didn't stop it. So with the medicine i now only went through about 3 pads and 3 tampons a day versus the 6 or 7 I would need :nono:. So as a warning to all ladies please be careful when taking supplements....in the end its not worth your health.

It does have a detoxing effect that eventually goes with continued use. Do you think the hives are due to the detoxing effects and will eventually go away? or is it an allergic reaction? If it is an allergic reaction you need to disconinue using it. If it is a detox side effect it will go
