No sign of period

Hello Anonymous,

Pregnancy can be ruled out if all three pregnancy tests produced negative results. What does your gynecologist say about the absence of a period for two months?

Amenorrhea, which is the medical name for a missed period or an absence of one or more periods, is diagnosed when you have missed three menstrual cycles in a row.

Causes include stress and anxiety, excessive weight loss or weight gain, certain birth control pills such as the Depo-Provera injection, and eating disorders, rigorous exercise, certain medications including anti-depressants, hormonal imbalance, and problems with your thyroid gland.
