You must schedule an appointment with a gynecologist. With blood tests to check hormone levels, and a physical exam, the physician can determine why you have not started to menstruate.
Absent menstruation, or amenorrhea, is the absence of menstrual bleeding. It happens when a girl hasn’t had her first menstrual period by age 16.
It may be caused by various lifestyle factors, including body weight and exercise levels. In some cases, hormonal imbalances or problems with the reproductive organs might be the cause.
