Had a period for 6 years then it stopped and i've only had one period in the last year and a half what could be the cause should i be concerned?

Amenorrhea: You have secondary amenorrhea, meaning you had a period at once, then it stopped. There can be several causes for this and a Gynecologist can examine you, do some routine testing and should be able to properly diagnose why your periods are not functioning correctly and then the proper treatment will occur. (Be safe with sex as you do not know if you ovulate). Best wishes.
