Hi waringa
There are many causes of amenorrhea & anovulation,but,most common are,
Stress
PCOD
Anorexia nervosa
Hypothyroidism
Tuberculosis(in Asian countries)
If,you are overweight,then,more chances of PCOD.
So,don't be scare,just consult your gynaecologist &

Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic
You are more likely to have amenorrhea if you:Are obese,Exercise excessively and for long periods of time,Have less than 15% - 17% body fat,Have severe anxiety or emotional distress,Lose a lot of weight suddenly. It could also be due to Polycystic ovarian syndrome,Premature ovarian failure,Thyroid or prolactin dysfunction . Hormone shots for birth control like depot provera may also lead to amenorrhea. You need to consult a gynecologist soon. Take care.
