What Causes Irregular Periods?

I m wondering about ways of getting pregnant. I didn t have an interocourse with my boyfriend nor did our genitals touch. We were both in our underwear. Ejaculation happened and afterward I checked my dress and underwear and there were no sperm marks. Other two times we were fully dressed and I had a wet spot on my jeans. After coming home I washed my genitals with soap and hot water. I m a recovering anorexic and had amenorrhea for over a year. After that it was irregular. Now I lost some weight again and I didn t have my last period. Could it be becouse of the weight loss or a chance I could be pregnant?

Hello and welcome to HCM.
Chance of pregnancy is less likely as you were clothed during the act.Your main problem is irregular menses.
If I were your treating ,I would recommend-
-Investigations like blood haemogram,thyroid tests,blood glucose levels,blood cortisol levels and USG abdo pelvis.
These tests are required to to rule out probable cause of irregular menses like thyroid disorder,polycystic ovary syndrome,anaemia,genital TB etc
-oral contraceptive medication to regulate menses
like those containing ethinyl estradiol 0.03-0.05 mg/progesterone 0.15 mg ,once daily for 25 days cycle in a month.(physician's prescription drug)
Continuing this cycle for minimum 3 months
-Iron tablet 300 mg once daily
-regular balanced diet.
Hope this information helps.
Thanks and regards.
