go to the doctor....ask about the possibility of PCOS. If that's the case, also ask about the possibility of insulin resistance.
hope that helps
P.S. chekc on the web about those two problems (PCOS and insulin resisitance)

i seen a woman with similar symptoms on a show... but i think she had a VERY heavy period.. as opposed to losing one...she also had skin tags.. the littel skin colored moles that you get around your neck and sometimes your breasts.... i can't remember the term they had used. but the woman onteh show went YEARS wihtout knowing what the cause was.... i beleive ti ahd to do with a gland located somewehre inher head.. and what stabalized her condition was birth control pills....
I am obviously not a doctor.. but it MAY eb worth a shot to try some birth control if you cna't find any other explanations wiht your doctor.. (just make 100% sure your NOT pregnant first..lol.. but toher wise.. it coudn't hurt) Best of luck.. i relaly hope you can find otu the source of the problem!

Could it be that you are unnecessarily worried or anxious about something? Try getting out of your worry and pick up a hobby or two and go outdoors. Do not indulge yourself in cheeses and chocolates since they will puff up up your weight and would also re-start the acne problems. Get your ovaries checked up for any extra hormonal production as also your pituitary gland

the reason of your gaining weight is because you haven't had period in a while. your hormone is messed up somehow. see a doctor, if financial is a problem, apply for medicaid.
hope you'll find some answer soon. goodluck.

Did you get the depo provera shot? That can cause all those symptoms.
The woman on the television show had a tumor on her pituitary gland, I think.
You might also have a thyroid disturbance -- please go to a doctor!

go see doctor. you are either eating too much or your thyroid may be overactive, acne is a symptom of a blood disorder or carrying too much sugar in your diet ,go see a doctor .
