Amenorrhea: Hi. Not having a period for over 8 months and being upset and stressed could cause secondary amenorrhea. Other causes might include weight loss, hyperthyroid and side effects to certain medications. I would see a doctor for a check up and labs. Stress raises cortisol which can interfere with many other hormones. Dr Lori Lange - Pennsylvania US
