Get Amenorrhea Treatment Online

Amenorrhea is the absence of menstrual periods. Primary amenorrhea means periods have never started by age 15. Secondary amenorrhea means periods stop for three or more months in someone who previously had regular cycles. Causes include hormonal imbalances, elevated prolactin, thyroid disorders, extreme weight loss, excessive exercise, stress, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and structural reproductive issues.

You should seek evaluation if you have missed three or more consecutive periods and are not pregnant, if you have never had a period by age 15, or if you experience additional symptoms such as unusual hair growth, vision changes, nipple discharge, or significant weight changes alongside absent periods.

Yes. Prolonged amenorrhea can lead to low estrogen levels, which increases the risk of bone density loss (osteopenia or osteoporosis) and cardiovascular concerns. Treating the underlying cause early helps protect long-term bone and heart health.

Amenorrhea and infertility are related but not the same. Amenorrhea often means ovulation is not occurring, which makes conception difficult. However, treating the underlying cause - such as correcting a hormone imbalance or managing a thyroid condition - can restore ovulation and fertility for many people.

Treatment depends entirely on the underlying cause. Options may include progesterone therapy to induce withdrawal bleeding, dopamine agonists for high prolactin levels, thyroid hormone replacement for hypothyroidism, or medications to stimulate ovulation. Lifestyle changes such as stress reduction, weight stabilization, or reducing excessive exercise may also be recommended.

Yes. Functional hypothalamic amenorrhea is a common type caused by significant physical or psychological stress, low body weight, or high-intensity exercise.
