I dont have my...?

Question

I dont get my period every month like a normal person would. I have even gone a whole year without having my menstral cycle. Im not on birth control or any of that sort. I told my doctor at a visit and he said because I was over the normal weight for my height. I now am at normal weight for my height and still no menstral cycle. What my question is.. Will this cause complcations when I decide to have a baby ?

Answer 1

Why don't you go to a Doctor for your question, instead of the Yahoo answer board. We don't know nothing about you and we are not in the position to give you an answer. These board are mostly for entertainment.

Answer 2

your body may not follow this schedule exactly. It's not unusual, especially in the first 2 years after menarche, to skip periods or to have an irregular menstrual cycle. Illness, rapid weight change, or stress can also make things more unpredictable because the part of the brain that regulates periods is influenced by stuff like this.

Some girls always have irregular periods; others get theirs every 28 days like clockwork. Many are regular most of the time, but occasionally skip a period or get an extra period during times of pressure or stress. In fact, you may notice that when you go on a trip or have a major change in your schedule your period is late.

The length of your periods may also vary - sometimes your period may last 2 days, sometimes 10. That's because the level of hormones your body manufactures can be different from one cycle to the next and this affects the amount and length of bleeding.

So how can you tell when you're about to get your period? If you're not regular, you'll want to pay attention to the clues your body may give you. These include:

back cramps or stiffness
heavier breasts or breast soreness (this will happen after ovulation and before you get your period)
headaches
acne breakouts
disturbed sleep patterns
mood swings

Answer 3

If this were me, and all my doctor had to say was "you're overweight", with no other assessment, discussion, or offer to help me (or to refer me to someone who could help me) with a weight loss and exercise plan, I'd get me a new doctor.

Please see a gynecologist soon (if that other doc was one, find another). Ask friends and family if they like their gynecologist and if so, get the contact info. Get an appointment soon, be sure to tell them when you make the appointment why you are making it - no menstrual bleeding for over a year. You are being responsible about your health (talking to you doctor, losing weight) and I think you deserve a doctor who takes that seriously. Your questions would be best directed to a gynecologist who can take a full history and do a complete physical assessment.

Answer 4

are you a runner? I am a runner and I sometimes get into situations like you do. I went and asked my doctor and she said that runners tend to have really irregular cycles. have you gone to ask your doctor AFTER you reached your normal weight? it might not or may cause complications when you decide to have a baby. Go get checked by a medical attention.

Answer 5

What kind of doctor have you been seeing? You should be going to an OB-Gyn to find out what is going on with your body.

Your cycles can be irregular but they should be like that, you need to find out why they are.

Good luck.

Answer 6

Yes it probably will. You need to get regulated. Go get a second opinion and make sure there isn't any underlying problem going on.
