Gallbladder+Period? O.o

I don't think this is very serious but I'm just wondering. Can having gallbladder problems cause a missed period(s)?
I've had issues for a few months now with my stomach, and went to the doctor's yersterday. They said it's either reflux or gallbladder issues (both of which my parents had/have). They put me on the generic for Prilosec and I have an ultrasound scheduled for my gallbladder late in September. I have a tender spot on the right side of my stomach where if you press it hurts, so yeah. : /
Anyway, I've also noticed I haven't had a period since June (I think it was june anyway, it might've been earlier; I don't keep track of my periods. Too lazy). So...yeah. Back to the question up top. :P
Thanks in advance for any help.

Could be stress or hormonal fluctuations, then. I don't think that the gallbladder has anything to do with it. Best wishes.

I've skipped periods earlier this year / a few times last year since my parents broke up on Thanksgiving of last year. The gallbladder thing runs in my family.
And I don't exercise / My weight is steady. And I'm still a virgin.

Have you had unprotected sex, if so take a hpt. Otherwise, unless you have lost a lot of weight or have began a vigorous exercise program, you should be having periods. Is this new to you or have you done this in the past?
