I have not had a period now going on 5 months. I have had my thyroid,hormones, and cholesterol checked and everything was normal. I have even had my blood drawn for possible pregnancy twice, and they were negative both times. My nurse practitioner said it is due to stress.
However, I don't have that much stress in my life right now. I am 26 years old, and I have severe hot flashes, and my hands feel like I am always holding a cup of something hot.
I went to see my primary care physician, and at the end of my visit she tried to perscribe me some prozac. When I asked why she said that it would help with any stress that I may have. Then I asked to be refferred to an endocrinalogist my doctor said she wanted my to try the prozac for a week. After a week come back in and have my hormone levels retested. I don't understand. If anyone has any information or knows what my symptoms could be related to I would really appriciate it. Thank you.
