Amenorrhoea that is absent, suppressed or delayed menses.
Menstruation is an important activity of women’s reproductive function.
Having a regular menstrual cycle is essential to have a healthy uterus and a sign that the woman’s reproductive system is working normally.
A uterus that is not stimulated to shed the endometrium, or sheds the endometrium inadequately, may become atrophied or shrunk.
This means the muscles lose their tone and strength.
If the mucosa lining is not stimulated to secrete mucus then the uterus is not lubricated and may become “dry” or weak and would not be the best environment to house an embryo.
The term “Amenorrhea” literally means an absence of menstrual bleeding: often defined as missing one or more menstrual periods.
There are two types:
- Primary amenorrhea refers to the absence of menstruation in someone who has not had a period by age 15.
- Secondary amenorrhea refers to the absence of three or more periods in a row by someone who has had normal periods in the past.
If you don’t have periods for 3-6 months – you must consult a doctor.

- Regular check your weight to control obesity.

- Engage in an enjoyable hobby
- Using meditation or mindfulness techniques such as yoga and deep breathing
Reduce exercise if you overdo.
Missing periods may occur due to low energy availability. This can occur if you aren’t taking in enough energy relative to the energy you’re burning through exercise.
- Take steam or sitz bath in the morning and in the evening; sit in a tub of hot water for 10-15 minutes.
A warm bath may help relax tight muscles and relieve emotional stress that can help to bring on your period.
You may add relaxing essential oils to a bath.
- Try using a warm compress such as a hot water bottle by applying it to the abdomen as heat may help increase blood flow thus gently accelerating the menstrual cycle.
- Sex and orgasm could also help to bring on a period. The hormones produced during sexual activity and uterine contractions during orgasm may help to dilate the cervix and help the uterus begin to shed its lining.
Regular sex with your legitimate partner can also reduce the effects of stress and help to promote a healthy hormonal balance.
