A study conducted by the University of Illinois and Washington University School of Medicine found that, out of 39,000 women surveyed, 42% of women who received the COVID-19 vaccine are experiencing unusual menstrual bleeding.

The study introduction reads: “In this sample, 42% of people with regular menstrual cycles bled more heavily than usual, while 44% reported no change after being vaccinated.”

Ironically, the same New York Times that reported back in 2021, “The evidence around abnormal periods is so far purely anecdotal. There is no known link between vaccination and changes in menstruation, and public health experts reiterate that vaccines are safe, effective and necessary to end the pandemic,” is now reporting the study previously mentioned as fact. Shockingly, of course, since the study was based on thousands of personal testimonies, also known as anecdotes.

Though not guaranteed to be harmful, noticeable changes to your cycle could indicate an underlying health condition.

A while ago, Rogan O’Handley (@dc_draino) posted to his Instagram story the plethora of direct messages he received from women sharing their personal experiences after taking the COVID-19 vaccine. Now, only after a a majority of the country opted to take the vaccine, does the corporate media feel it appropriate to address the “anecdotal” concerns of thousands of women.

There are many ongoing studies being conducted by independent medical institutions, as well as the vaccine manufacturers themselves, that are continually making new discoveries on the efficacy of the vaccines.

Medical transparency is essential. Media outlets, health organizations, and public figures have the obligation to present the facts to the public in a timely manner, to enable them to make an educated decision for themselves and their families.

Any person who questioned the efficacy vaccine shouldn’t have been written off as a “conspiracy theorist,” but rather, a normal person, with normal concerns, and a normal desire to make a well-informed personal health decision.
