Get to a doctor. You may have a serious medical problem.

Any history of galactorrhea (milky discharge from the breasts) is important and indicates the need for a prolactin hormone level to rule out hyperprolactinemia.
A woman who has had hot flashes, breast atrophy and decreased libido along with her amenorrhea may have premature ovarian failure.
Certain medications such as phenothiazines (used for psychiatric disorders) and some narcotics can cause amenorrhea, usually in association with an elevated prolactin and galactorrhea.
A large amount of weight loss or gain can also lead to anovulation - as can stress or extensive exercise.
Anorexia nervosa is often accompanied by secondary amenorrhea.
Both Cushing's disease (over activity of adrenal glands) and hypothyroidism (under-functioning thyroid gland) can cause amenorrhea.
You should see a doctor, pronto!
