Stress and menses: Stress -emotional or physical- can alter the menstrual cycle. "Fasting" for a month is a significant stress on your body and could account for the lack of menses.

See doc: See your doc for a blood test for pregnancy and an exam for other possibilities for a missed period. It is not uncommon for illness to delay a period. If you continue to be irrgular your doc can determine cause and treatment. It is important to use protection to prevent PG and STD's going forward. When no other cause is found, and if you desire pregnancy, you will know that you are healthy 1st
