I asked this before but I'm getting new symptons.


Question Posted Sunday April 1 2007, 3:09 pm

Okay so I am NOT pregnant, this I know for sure because I took a blood test at my doctor a few weeks ago because I am going to South Africa soon.

I haven't gotten my period for 3 months! I am not anorexic or bulimic, I have not lost tons of weight resently, however, I am overweight. What really freaked me out is that I saw a hair on my chin!!!! I know it's normal for females to get facial hair but I never noticed this before.

Can I be going through menapause? Why haven't I gotten my period? Is this normal?? Have any of you ever skipped periods for this long??? AH I'm really freaking out here.

It is possible to go through the menopause at a young age, just not very common. It affects about 1% of women between the ages of 15-45.
Having said that, don't panic, there's a good chance it's something as simple as a hormone imbalance, which can be dealt with. There are specific blood tests to find this. I would suggest you go back to your doctor, explain what has been happening and let him diagnose you.
Even if it is nothing to worry about, it will ease the tension you must feeling, which could even help to kick start your period.

If you're only 19 then you probably aren't menopausal because women don't go through menopause until they're way into their middle-aged years. I'm 16 and my period is still insanely irregular, I skip months like crazy. But if this isn't normal for you then maybe something is wrong. If you're 100% sure that you're not pregnant then maybe there's something else going on. Speak with your regular physician about finding out what's up. Maybe it is just an irregular period and you need something to regulate it.
