What Causes Three Missed Menstrual Periods And Slight Brown Vaginal Discharge?

I m 19 years old and I have just recently become sexually active with a longterm boyfriend. My period was regularly every 31 days. For the past 3 months my period has not come. I took a pregnancy test twice and it said negative so I don t think I m pregnant. And the day before yesterday I was having a brown discharge which I thought was my period coming on but it stopped the next day. I m starting to get worried but I m scared to go to the doctor because I don t want to hear anything bad.

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Most common cause of absence of period for 3 months in sexually active women is pregnancy.
Sometime if you have doe pregnancy tests earlier then it will give false negative result.
I would suggest to consult gynecologist and undergo blood HCG test and USG scan to rule out pregnancy.
In absence of pregnancy it could be due to
Hormonal imbalance, ovulatory dysfunction, excessive stress, change in life style and dietary habit.
You can ask gynecologist for progesterone tablet to induce period in absence of pregnancy.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
