Other reasons: The second most common cause of absent periids after pregnancy is anovulation - the absence of ovulation. It causes the egg cell to continue to grow in its follicle. Your body continues in the initial phase of your cycle and never goes to the Progesterone phase needed for the period to start. That's why Progesterone is given to jump start your periods.

Hormonal imbalance: Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time. You may consider implanted contraceptive or an IUD.
