My friend hasn't gotten her period for three months now. SHE'S NOT PREGNANT! Is she ok?!?!


Question: My friend hasn't gotten her period for three months now. SHE'S NOT PREGNANT! Is she ok.?!.?
Is there any way to explain this. I am really worried for her. I know for sure that she is definitely not pregnant. What else could be wrong with her.?
Thank you so much,

Answers:
I don't know how old she is, but if she's relatively young this is normal. It can take several months to over a year for a woman's cycle to regulate itself. Other things that may interfering with her cycle are diet, stress, and excessive physical activity. All of these factors can cause a woman's body to skip one or more periods. As long as she's not experiencing any other worrisome symptoms (such as abdominal pain, fever, or abnormal vaginal discharge) there's nothing to worry about at this point.

If the irregularity becomes bothersome she could certainly go see her general practitioner. He/she may prescribe a low dose birth control pill to help regulate her cycle. Health Question & Answer

I missed mine for 10 months (not pregnant), then it just started right back up on its own (without the pill) and I've had a normal cycle ever since. Lots of things can cause that to happen. For me, it's a hormonal imbalance, but it can also be caused by stress, change in diet, weight gain or weight loss, etc. It's most likely nothing, but maybe she should see a doctor or gynecologist, just in case.

Omg i hate when people say the stupidest answers ever like if your not going to put time and energy into, do not answer it. Ok back to the question. Has she just started her period like 6 months to a year ago, because if so your period may always be irregular for the first couple years. She should be fine if it lasts for longer than 6+ months she should go see a doctor.

First of all she should prolly go get checked out to make sure everything is ok. Does she play sports.? Is she under a lot of stress.? The sports thing is the biggest as far as a lag in the menstrual cycle. Stress is a big part too. Health Question & Answer

its ok thats how it is
its ok for it to come late because she might just started to have it so it means that her system isnt used to doing it so pretty much she is ok

It depends.
If she's young, she may just not be regular.
But if she's at an age where it should be regular, there may be a problem.
