Many, many things can affect our cycles but anyone who missed this many months should see a gynecologist just to be on the safe side. You haven't mentioned your age but it is also common to miss several periods in a row if you have just recently started your menses. However, if you have had them for more than a year and are skipping this many, please see the doctor. Please note that some "normal" things that can make you miss so many in a row are extreme weight loss, eating disorders, stress and extreme exercise. Many female runners (those that practice for marathons) can go months without a period. Lack of sleep, in and of itself, usually will not make you miss so many in a row. Chances are you are not having your period because you are not ovulating. You want to get this checked out to find out the cause.
