the last time i had my period was 2 months ago.
and no i don't think i'm pregnant b/c i'm not sexually active


why does this happen? i'm getting worried as i am now approaching my 3rd month without
menstruating

[sake_bomb]

It could be a number of reasons including but not exclusive to:
-stress
-hormonal imbalance
-change in environment/day to day procedures
-change in diet/exercise

Yeah, it could be too much stress, not enough food intake, or just your period changing.
Some people naturally have their period about 4 times a year, but anorexic people don't have periods at all.
Sometime around last summer my period changed from the beginning of the month to the end of the month and it freaked the hell out of me for those 3 weeks; when you're still young and just getting used to your period, it can be extremely inconsistent, so don't be too worried.
When in doubt, see a doctor.

yeah this happened to me too. but it was because i had to lose a lot of weight.
try eating pommegrante. haha
sounds weird but my mom made me eat it and it helped? haha

[EHNerJI]

how old are you? and did you just start it recently? when i first got mine it skipped around a lot -___- so bad and i didn't get it for a long time too.. i started freaking out and thought i was pregnant or something which, wasn't possible lolll but yah, don't worry about it, it happens to lots of ppl ^^

[GreenTeaMochi]

yeah..how long have you had your period? It might be food or stress.

[Joanna]

yeh that used to happen to me, im not sure what caused it though. i used to get my period like every 2 or 3 months. but now i get it every month. i think it might be because of stress because it happened to me during highschool ><

There are many different reasons that might factor in why you might be experiencing irregular periods.

* Significant weight gain or loss
* Over-exercise
* Poor nutrition (or a diet too high in carbohydrates)
* Smoking
* Drug use
* Caffeine
* Excessive alcohol use (interfering with how the liver metabolizes estrogen and progesterone)
* Eating disorders
* Increased stress
* Polycystic ovarian syndrome/estrogen dominance
* Uterine abnormalities (fibroids/cysts/polyps/endometriosis)
* Hormonal imbalance related to perimenopause
* Medications
* Chemotherapy
* Recent childbirth, miscarriage, or D&C
* Breastfeeding

It's normal for girls to be skipping every so often in their first year or two after their first period.

I didn't have a consistent menstrual cycle for my first 3 years I've skipped up to 5 months in a row one time.
My periods still aren't even spaced apart. Sometimes I'll get in in the first week of the month or sometimes I'll get it on the third week.

If the problem persists, go to you doctor. It isn't healthy for girls to be skipping their menstrual cycles too much, especially you've had your menstrual cycle for quite sometime now. They would probably put you on birth control or something similar to force you to have your cycles regularly.

I think they would do this because your testosterone levels might build up? I don't exactly remember what my doctor had said haha.

did you just get your period recently? it could be that its not stable yet. so it likes skip a couple months and then out of the blue you get it again. thats what happened to me and a couple of my friends when we first got our period

[understanding_fiction]

don't worry ;3
once, i got two periods five days apart x_x which freaked me out..
and once, it came about 3 months between o.o;;

[sarah_luisa]

it used to happened to me
but when i became more active(more exercise)
it comes every motnh

[NotFromThisPlanet]

theres many possibilities as to why you are skipping periods.
it would be best to go to the gynecologist to find out the exact reason.

[hypocrite]

It also happened to me before because i was too strict with my diet ...I didnt get my period for 3 months, then i wen to doctor, and she gave me those hormone pills (is that wat you called) and then I got my period again for 2 months, but...because i'm too stubborn (again!) with my diet, 2 months later without period. but now, since i'm tired forcing my self to lose weight, i started eat normally again, and the period comes normally ....

That's why anorexic people dont get their period.

My friend also said that if you dont have enough fat(lack of fat in your body) like being vegan, you'll also will face problem with menstruation.......(she has experienced it before)..but i dont know is it true or not a

Try to eat well, and exercise, take supplement also You can try to drink chinese traditional medicine that helps blood circulation.....

last time i lost 10 pounds i lost my periods as well.

[Fropit]

Maybe it's irregular
or stress...


Well, that happened to me, too.
