A member asked:

I have a hole in my uterus. will that cause me not to have a period? its been 16 months.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: All uteri have a hole; it's called the cervix. It's why you have a period. If you haven't had one in sixteen months, you might have gone through menopause. If you think you are too young to have done that, then see your gynecologist.
