Understanding Orlistat and Menstrual Changes
If you're wondering whether orlistat can affect your periods, you're not alone. Irregular menstruation is listed as an uncommon side effect that may affect up to 1 in 100 women taking orlistat. Our UK-licensed prescribers can assess your individual circumstances and provide personalised guidance through our secure online consultation service.
Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in your digestive system. Whilst most side effects are gastrointestinal, some women may experience changes to their menstrual cycle. This could be related to weight loss itself, dietary changes, or the medication. Our prescribers will review your medical history to determine the most appropriate treatment approach for you.
Complete Online Prescription Process
Our streamlined process makes accessing orlistat simple and discreet. Complete your confidential health questionnaire online, covering your medical history, current medications, and specific concerns about menstrual changes. A qualified UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and decides whether treatment is clinically appropriate for you.
Choose from three options: generic orlistat 120mg (most cost-effective, 4-week supply £32.99), branded Xenical 120mg (same active ingredient, 4-week supply £42.99), or lower-strength Alli 60mg (4-week supply £28.99). All contain the same active ingredient but at different strengths. Use code EDM10 for 10% off your order.
Professional Clinical Assessment
Our UK-licensed prescribers specialise in weight management treatments and understand the concerns women may have about menstrual cycle changes. During the online consultation, you can discuss any period-related concerns and receive expert guidance tailored to your individual health circumstances.
The prescriber will assess whether orlistat is suitable for you based on your BMI, medical history, and current health status. They'll also provide guidance on managing potential side effects and when to seek further medical advice. This comprehensive assessment ensures you receive safe, appropriate treatment.
