Your menstrual cycle is actually quite responsive to environmental stressors. Little things like nutrition and stress can actually wreak havoc on your period. If you have amenorrhea, it is likely that something has caused your hormone levels to fall out of sync. As a result, your body is no longer producing a period. Factors that can contribute to hormonal problems include:
improper nutrition
strenuous exercise
rapid weight loss or gain
disordered eating, anorexia, or bulimia
stress
problems with your pituitary gland, hypothalamus, or ovaries
Amenorrhea can indicate reproductive health problems including:
polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), in which tiny cysts form over the ovaries
