Do not worry much regarding the duration of your periods if your cycle is regular.
Sometimes drugs like lithium can affect periods.
Just go for some basic investigations like: usg lower abdomen blood :1) hb%
2) tsh 3) prl. Keep a check on your body weight. Avoid weight gain, do regular brisk walk and take a healthy diet.

Dear Sahil,
i do not have any experience of prescribing lithium oratate.
You have to take it in the long run only, for few specific diagnostic disorders.
In those disorders, the benefit outweighs the risk of side effect.
Just because it is safer than lithium carbonate should not be the reason for taking it in long run.

These are some of the known effects of using lithium. Incidentally, all psychotropic drugs have some side effects and so will lithium. Lithium can cause nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, muscle weakness, fatigue, and a dazed feeling. These unwanted side effects often improve with continued use. Fine tremor, frequent urination, and thirst can occur and may persist with continued use. Weight gain and swelling from excess fluid can also occur.
