See below: Assuming your not pregnant, there are a large number of causes for skipped period or abnormal menstrual bleeding. Some of these include failure to ovulate, severe emotional stress, obesity, anorexia, polycystic ovarian syndrome, other hormonal causes, diseases or abnormalities of the reproductive tract etc. Often the cause is unknown.
