Answer 1

If you are not suffering overtly from stress, I would consider your diet. If have a poor diet, or are not getting enough vitamins+minerals it can affect your hormone levels.

Cut out junk food, and sugary foods, and try taking a "one a day" multivitamin, and an omega3-6 supplement. Ensure you have a balanced diet. Try this for a couple of months, if no better see your doc. If your overweight get some exercise.

Answer 2

It sounds as though you are dealing with a hormonal imbalance that is affecting your cycles. This can be caused by stress, illness, fatigue, or other factors. Contact your doctor about going on a regimen of hormone therapy for a while to regulate your cycles before trying to become pregnant again.

Answer 3

This sound like a question that a doctor could answer. You should make a doctors appointment and have them take a test, like a pap smear so that he/she could find out what is going on.. Good Luck to you....
