There are definitely a lot of reasons you could be missing period, but if you are concerned, then take a pregnancy test. I wish you the best of luck if you are pregnant.

#9- Not okay, man. Even in anonymous commentary.

Dude, I have the same problem (except for my friends thinking I'm 5 months pregnant, lol). 19 years old, not on birth control or any meds, fairly stressed (but hey, I'm in college). I can not have my period for months at a time, but it always reappears. It's been 3 or 4 months right now. But I think both you and I should go see a gyno, because I don't know about you, but this has been going on for a couple years for me.

Take the hint -- lose some weight.

take the test thing ?

Huh...kind of interesting how you wouldn't be concerned even in the slightest if you've been 5 months late on your period. Did you think that was supposed to happen? 5 months? Really? 5 months and you didn't ask or talk to ANYONE? Wow...you're either really stupid or this is made up.

I have the same problem. Except for the fact that I've gone over 9 months without having a period. And I am 19. Obviously, it's not stress, and I do everything the natural way. I don't take birth control, and I don't have sex (I'm a virgin anyway). There are serious health problems that can be related with this. In my case, I have a rare blood disease. Really check up with a gyno about what could be going on. It's a definite problem. I mean, I'm sure mine is little more serious than yours. But still, you should get blood tests (though they can't do much without knowing what to look for).

Sorry, another comment. I've had this problem since puberty, so obviously it's nothing wrong with my being fat. There may be different factors that some people don't understand. Hormone levels have a lot to do with this. I'm not saying you're fat, or a bigger person, BUT having more fat in your body means higher testosterone levels, which also means, less periods. This could be an issue. And you can test your hormone levels, ask your gyno, or doctor, to do this for you. Also, I have gotten tested for a thyroid disorder for my menstrual condition. So, ask your doctor, bring it up. Don't be afraid. Some serious problems could develop later in life if you don't take the correct precautions to the problem.

On the bright side, any drinking, drugs and/ or smokes you've had in the last 5 months will make raising the child fun.

well you can miss periods if you underweight too i am underweight and haven't had a period in over a year...so maybe the trick was that she was thinking you were way to tiny to look preggerz :)
