if you have lost too much weight and are burning alot of calories you can temporarily lose your period. Your body is using every calorie you eat to keep itself going, and can't spare any for the menstrual cycle. Try to cut back on the exercise and gain a few (healthy) pounds. If you still have no periods by the new year see your doctor, you may need hormones to get them going again.

Your period may just be abnormal. Go to a doctor, and if they suspect something is wrong, they may give you birth control pills [even though you may not need them!], but they will regulatre your period. Also, it will clear up your skin!

Well I have never had my period yet and I am 26! I am not on any birth control pills either. Should I be worried.
Oh, I did neglect to mention I am a guy. Should that matter though?

If you have been losing weight then it is normal not to have your period for a couple of months but i would go to the pros for advice.

Are you a recent started? If you are around the age of 11? 12? then it will be abnormal because you just started, so it takes a while for it to start again.

Playing sport and losing weight can make you not have your periods. Are you eating properly?

depends on how old you are.... some women, like me, have abnormal periods...mine used to be every other month, but i've know some girls that did not have it for one year...you should seek medical advice.

i lost 60+ lbs in less than 3 months and still had my cycle once a month. you need to talk to your gynecologist.

many girls lose their period because they are atheletic. i wouldnt worry about it. it will probably come back soon. if not, then you might want to worry. check out webmd.com
