Re: no periods

Dont worry. It will come by itself. Sometimes the cycles do go out of whack, but they end up ok. My doctor recommended seeing a doctor IF that continues for 2-3 months. Right now, it is just late. If it doesn't come at all until, say, your next expected period, see someone. It is ok if it is just late.

Don't worry.

Re: no periods

I agree with curious lady.

since you have mentioned that you have been sick so either it could me medication or you have become weak (like u said u were on diet too) which has caused this.

you are only 17 my sincere advise to you is that don't go crazy after loosing weight. a very stressful diet will affect your body alot it will hit your immune system and make your body weak , you will catch infections more quickly because of weakened immune system. eat healthy and loose weight.

if you dont get periods for another month visit a dr.

The answer may lie here in bold part.

Any recent stress, long disease, diet change or exercise disturbs hormones.

Like CL said: Wait a little longer before panicking. But, panicking will not help either.

And forget abour 'home remedies'. :)

Re: no periods

Eating milk and dates cooked in it is a home remedy to bring on periods.

Re: no periods

Hey it is nothing to worry about komal. If you want to try home remedy to induce it, try vitamin c tablets.

Re: no periods

thanks everyone.its was a great help because i was worrying a lot and today the pain has even increased,it feels as if i will have them right now.so will i have them this month or will there be a gap?

No one can tell you till you get it.
