Hi Anon,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.

The absence of period is called amenorrhea. There are two different categories, primary and secondary. Secondary amenorrhea is when a woman who has had normal menstrual cycles stops getting her monthly period for three or more months.

Here's some additional information on the topic:

I hope this helps.
