Dear Anon,

A missed period for more than one month is known an Amenorrhea. 

Complications of Amenorrhea include: 

  • Infertility.If you don't ovulate and have menstrual periods, you can't become pregnant.
  • Osteoporosis.If your amenorrhea is caused by low estrogen levels, you may also be at risk of osteoporosis — a weakening of your bones.

For more information on Amenorrhea, please visit our page: https://www.empowher.com/condition/amenorrhea/causes

In order to regulate your periods, the eating disorder must be addressed and treated. Please contact the national eating disorder hotline at: 1-800.931.2237

Best,

Rosa
