I was wondering about something as to why my period stopped.My problems with my body started when i was 16 i had my first period at the age of 13 and for some unknown reason it stopped when i was about 16 years old.I waited two years and went to someone about it and they just gave me birth control pills i thought at the time all i had to do was take the medicine for a little while then I would be better but i was not after I stopped taking them my period stopped as well I now I am turning 21in two months and my period still has not returned could that mean I have menopause? unsure.gif

Are you underweight, or very athletic? These things can keep your period from coming.

It sounds like you would be helped by talking to your doctor. I doubt you are in menopause at your very young age, but a doctor could help you determine what's going on.

My best to you,

I had the same problem. Was put on BC pills when I was 15. Stayed on them till I was around 17. When I quit taking them, I had no period for around 5 months. I gained weight, face broke out, felt like I was going to explode! Went back on the pill & took them until I considered getting pregnant at 28. But again ... no period. Went back on & off & finally had my first child at 31.

My niece has the same problem (she's 20). What does your doc say? I finally got all straightened out ... NOW perimenopause & I'm all screwed up again. Sheesh! wacko.gif

Good luck sweets!
