LadySaphira answered Friday February 16 2007, 2:48 pm: Your periods' probably stopped because you lost so much weight, you should remember that being skinny is a lot more unhealthy than being fat. But that mightn't be the reason your periods' stopped, one of my friends has had her period for ages and it just stopped for a whole year and she's perfectly healthy.
I myself have had my period for about 4 years or more and it's never followed any kind of pattern.
If your really worried, you might want to talk to some adult women (teachers, aunts, older sisters, mother ect.)If you don't want to talk to them, maybe you should read up on periods in you local library.
I really hope this advice helps you! [ LadySaphira's advice column | Ask LadySaphira A Question ]

If it has been that long you probably should talk to your mom and set up an appointment with your doctor to find out what is going on. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
