A member asked:

My period has stopped for the last two months and it's usually very regular. could this be because of the evening primrose oil that i've been taking?

Not likely: It is not likely the evening primrose oil. It is very common to have irregular periods when you are in your teens. If you are sexually active, you should definitely take a pregnancy test. Otherwise, you may want to see a gynecologist to have some hormone tests done, but most likely it is just normal and due to age.
