Hi everyone, just keeping updated about my Rapamycin Menstruation experiment -
I got my period again yesterday, June 11 ;
…Last Period - which I got back, 2 months after STOPPING Rapa, was May 21 ;
Two previous periods, early on after Starting the Rapa, I got on EXACTLY January 11 AND February 11 -
BUT then, NO period anymore until 2.5 months after STOPPING Rapa -
stopped March 24 …due to a C***** scare …for which I am still being evaluated…
It seems to be coming on the same day of the month …WHEN it has been coming,
…But this time, not ; my cycle was only 20 days…
…I don’t know what’s going on -
I hope my cycle will normalize in length…
…One other very important note:
since stopping Rapa,
I have suffered TERRIBLE Breast Tenderness -
and back before I used it,
that tenderness would at least GO AWAY with the first day of my period,
and only return as my cycle progressed,
…but This is lasting all month,
and it worries me,
that the Rapa has an effect on Estrogen / Estrogen Receptors (had my bloodwork, and Estrogen was that of a young woman’s - at 43…),
and I fear increased risk of …Breast C***** GOD FORBID!
…Will keep logging the effects …hope it all normalizes -
but, so far…
***I’m not sure I feel that Rapa use is safe 
,
And not sure I’d take it, if I had to do over again…***

Thank you for continuing to post. I wish there was some way to support you, besides just telling you that I am rooting for a health outcome even better than you ever imagined. God bless you.

Sending hugs.
I don’t know anything about this topic, so I can’t weigh in, but are you able to contact a rapa expert on this topic to figure out if this is potentially being caused by rapa vs a horrible coincidence?
For clarity, I’m in no way being dismissive, and I am not saying it is a coincidence, but I’m hoping you can get some more information for your peace of mind, not that it changes what you are going through.
