Absent periods: Whenever hormonal methods of contraception are used such as progesterone only IUD's or shots, periods may be absent as a result. Additionally, obesity can arrest periods as well. A GYN MD can help you to accomplish your contraceptive needs, weight reduction, and assess other medical problems like thyroid dysfunction during an examination. See one soon.
