Anemia & amenorrhea : If you are anemic you most likely low on iron. Iron is essential for red blood cells and for your blood. Your body wants to hoard as much blood as possible and it ceases to menstruate. If you are athletic and thin you may have something called the female athlete triad. Go see your gyn and get checked out, make sure it the anemia that is causing problems and determine what type of anemia it is.
