Chemotherapy, including AC (Adriamycin and Cyclophosphamide), can affect the menstrual cycle. According to my knowledge base, chemotherapy may cause changes in the menstrual cycle of young women or bring on early menopause in older women. Some women may experience their periods stopping during treatment, and this can sometimes be permanent, leading to infertility.
