A freind of mine has been having trouble with her period. She first got it around 12yrs of age but has neveer had a regular period. It has come and gone sometimes not getting one of almost a yr. She's 17 now and really starting to worry. She has been to several docters and they cant find a reason for this. In the last year she has also been suffering from yeast infections - could this be smoething?
I have been looking into 'amenhorrea' - but i dont understand y the dr's wouldnt think of this? Anyone have any ideas or sujections on how i can help her?

Low thyroid/PCOS/obesity..these are just a
few of the things that could cause not having periods as could low body fat(fat holds estrogen--too much fat may produce testosterone)She needs to see an endocrinologist.

if she is not pregnant it could be a hormone problem
