In recent weeks more and more posts in closed groups of medical advice for women have come up one after another with similar descriptions: Massive vaginal bleeding, which does not match the menstrual period, and arrives shortly after we are vaccinated for corona, some after one dose and others after a second dose of the vaccine.
The timing of these posts is interesting, because at the beginning of the vaccine the vaccines were limited to vaccine groups that did not include women of childbearing age, but now that the vaccine campaign has expanded and more and more young women of childbearing age have received a first dose (some have already received a second dose). To examine whether this is a new side effect, which did not arise in the clinical trials of vaccines.

Each of these posts has become a long thread in which more and more women who have experienced similar effects after the vaccine respond.
They describe significant bleeding, sometimes accompanied by blood clots, some even felt the need to seek medical attention for it and were prescribed medication to stop the bleeding.
But most often encountered dismissive and sometimes disparaging reactions when asking if this might be a side effect of the vaccine they received.
Some of the women even sought medical attention following the massive bleeding.

In this context, it is also worth noting that in the field of medicine and clinical research, there has been a gender bias for many years that women pay the price for.
For very many years studies have included mostly men and have not taken into account the biological diversity between men and women, which has led to treatments and drugs not being precisely tailored to women’s needs and sometimes this has led to impaired quality of medicine that women receive worldwide.
Vaginal bleeding in response to the vaccine is not a phenomenon that arose during the clinical study conducted by the vaccine manufacturers.
But now, as the numbers of men and women getting vaccinated around the world grow, new phenomena that have not been identified in research may be discovered.
This is also the reason why the Ministry of Health monitors side effects in public.
As the days go by and the culture of women reporting bleeding following the vaccine grows stronger, the feeling that this is an issue that must be clarified soon.
The issue of bleeding will be discussed at the Ministry of Health
Indeed, Adva Lotan, CEO of Madaat, commented on this and told Walla! NEWS that she intends to raise the issue in a discussion with the Ministry of Health: "There is a lively discussion on the issue on social media, although no such phenomenon has been reported in the experiment.
It is important to monitor the symptoms that appear in the vicinity of the vaccine, so that it will be possible to check whether there is a connection.
I asked to bring this issue up for discussion within the Corona Vaccine Monitoring Committee, to make sure that this monitoring is addressed along with the other reported symptoms.
However, it should be remembered that even if vaccine-related, intermenstrual bleeding is a very common condition and has no future consequences. "

What is the medical explanation?
"Many women have menstrual disorders from time to time even when menstruation is regular, and for some of the complainants this will be an unrelated phenomenon. Some women probably have an inflammatory response of the immune system that also affects the uterus," says Dr. Itamar Netzer, a gynecologist and friend. In the "Madat" organization. "Apart from the inconvenience of irregular bleeding, this has no long-term effect on the vaccinated person.
In my opinion, it is not worth giving up the second portion because of this. "
The reports are consistent with the date of the opening of the vaccination campaign for younger populations, which include women of childbearing age.

"In the case of inflammation, it may cause bleeding and mucous secretion in a small proportion of women. In the next cycle, everything returns to normal."
At this point it is difficult to determine by scientific criteria that the bleeding or inflammatory response is indeed caused directly by the vaccine, says Dr. Netzer. "We do not yet have enough information to know whether menstrual disorders occur more frequently after vaccination, or whether it is a common phenomenon that women experience.
But let's assume for the sake of severity that this is indeed a phenomenon that is more common following the vaccine - an inflammatory condition in the body is a condition that affects all systems, as well as the lining of the uterus.
Just as a cold virus, for example, causes an effect on the lining of the nose, the lining of the pharynx and throat as well as the eyes (all of these effects are inflammation of the immune system), so too is the lining of the uterus affected.
In the case of a corona vaccine, within a few days all the antigenic substance (mRNA and spike proteins) disappears from the body and the inflammatory response stops.
Other vaccines can do this, as well as other inflammatory conditions, "he explains."
Can this inflammatory condition also have long-term effects on the uterus or the hormonal system?
"In general, long-term side effects of vaccines are not known, and this vaccine does not A mechanism that may cause the phenomenon in the long run.
We know that both women who were vaccinated and women who became ill continued to have normal fertility after the vaccine or disease.
In case it is an infection, it may be causing bleeding and mucosal server in a small proportion of women.
In the next cycle, everything will return to normal. "
