Before taking synthroid, I had a normal menstrual cycle. Two weeks after starting the drug and two weeks after having my cycle, I am on my period again. Could this be caused by the synthroid?
I recently was prescribed synthroid for hypothyroidism. Can it effect menstrual cycles?

Yes, quite possibly. Changes in menstrual periods is a commonly reported side-effect of Synthroid. Talk with your doctor if it is bothering you.
