The country's health team is following up on reports of unusual menstrual flows in women who have received the AtraZeneca vaccine. Some women reported unusual menstrual flows after taking the jab. “Fortunately, we have not reported any thrombotic episodes among the more than 900,000 people we have vaccinated so far,” he added. Some have experienced heavy menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia), some bleeding before their periods were due, or bleeding frequently (metrorrhagia/polymenorrhea). But there is a small risk of thrombotic episodes following vaccination with AstraZeneca,” Amoth said.
