A member asked:
Besides pregnancy can there be any other causes for a woman to miss her period?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
MIssing Periods: Yes. Of course. Please, that list is very long and if you do not even know one item it is time to spend a few minutes researching and learning about menstrual cycles. Poor nutrition, stress, anorexia, severe exercise regimens, not ovulating are some of the more common problems. Medication interactions and some birth control processes can block menses.
