First and foremost, we truly understand your concerns regarding your symptoms and other health problems you might be facing. From your complaints, we believe that your condition may have multifactorial causes such as

  • Stress, stress can cause hormonal imbalance which controls your menstrual cycle, and also in a long run, affect your bodyweight which will be further elaborated in the next 2 point.
  • Low body weight, it affects your body metabolism and affects your hypothalamus, both of which can affect your menstrual cycle. If it’s associated with an eating disorder, getting your treatment for it will help alleviate the symptoms. Otherwise, eat a balanced diet and gain some weight may help you regulate your menstrual cycle.
  • Overweight, just as low body weight can affect your metabolism and hypothalamus, so can being overweight, having a proper diet and exercise plan to lose weight can help with this.
  • Polycystic ovarian syndrome, a condition where too much male hormones are produced in a female can lead to a cessation of menstruation. It is accompanied by hirsutism which is excessive hair at the face, the chin, the chest and the body.
