Could Steroid Cream Use Delay My Period?

Applying steroid cream to your face could potentially interfere with your menstrual cycle's regularity. Steroids possess the capacity to disrupt hormonal balance. For now, discontinue the cream's usage temporarily to observe if your cycle resumes normally. However, if your period fails to return, seek help from a gynecologist.
