Why can't I lose weight while taking Invega?Also my period is gone for 4 months why?

I started to take invega because risperidone was making me gain a lot of weight. I changed but I can't lose that weight. I was already taking sertraline I still take it. I stopped having my period when on invega and Pregnancy is not on the table already done the test. Can anyone help me?

I spoke with my sisters they said that there are a lot of factors stressed out? the meds they also said you might get your period soon now that its been four months hope this helps:)
