I Haven't had my period in 4 years!!!

[KG1988]

Before I stopped having my period, it was pretty regular. Then it just all of a sudden stopped and i have no clue why. I went to the doctor after the 1st or 2nd year and they put me on birth control to make me get them again. But then they stopped yet again. And i talked to some of my friends abot it, and a few of them said i may not be fertile anymore, which means i can't have kids. And ive tried to test that theory a few times, and im still not pregnant. So what do i do?? I have no health insurance to go to the doctor or anything.

When you say your periods stopped again the second time, had you stopped taking birth control by then? If so, you may just need to take some hormonal supplements when you do want to get pregnant.

I don't think it necessarily means you can't have kids...you might just need some help getting there.

Take care!

Hello - I'm new to this site, so much info.  It's nice to know we aren't the only ones going thru all this!  

We've been really trying on and off for 5 years now.  I stopped having periods and don't ovulate on a regular basis.  Only time I do have a period is if I'm on birth control.  OBGYN would just take blood and give me a dose of Clomid to take.  We decided to aggressively try so made an appointment with a RE...  the best thing we've done.  I've only been seeing her for 2 months but she at least has a game plan.  I'm taking prometrium 200mg 2x a day and hopefully something will happen.  They also found that my thyroid was out of wack.  So taking meds for that too.  I have so much more energy.  

I would really look into seeing a RE about your periods.  Might be something easy to correct with some meds.  ??  

Wish you well !!!!
