Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

I had regular periods a few months ago, but suddenly it has been 42 days without my period. I have taken a pregnancy test, and it came out negative, but I still have not gotten my period. Is this normal?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

It might occur after an illness, due to stress, or as a result of weight changes. Additionally, an ovarian cyst can be a potential cause, with the cyst typically resolving within a few months.

 

Thanks
