What Is Amenorrhea?

Amenorrhea is the absence of menstrual periods—either because they haven’t started by age 15 or have stopped for three months or more in someone who previously had regular cycles. But it’s not just about missed periods. Amenorrhea can signal an underlying issue like hormonal imbalance, stress, weight changes, or a medical condition. At Femme Med and Spa, we take the time to understand what’s behind the change and guide you toward answers.

Signs & Symptoms of Amenorrhea

  • Missing three or more periods in a row
  • No period by age 15
  • Increased facial or body hair
  • Acne that worsens or appears suddenly
  • Pelvic pain or pressure
  • Headaches or vision changes
  • Milky nipple discharge without breastfeeding
  • Noticeable weight loss or gain
  • Feeling bloated or cramping without bleeding

Possible Causes of Amenorrhea

  • Hormonal imbalances, including thyroid or pituitary disorders
  • Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
  • Significant weight loss, low body fat, or eating disorders
  • Excessive exercise or physical stress
  • High emotional stress or trauma
  • Stopping birth control or hormone medications
  • Perimenopause or early menopause

Uncover the Root Cause of Amenorrhea

At Femme Med and Spa, we start by listening to your story—your cycle history, lifestyle, and symptoms. From there, we may recommend hormone testing, pelvic exams, ultrasounds, or blood work to get a full picture of what’s happening in your body. We don’t jump to conclusions or rush the process. We aim to understand the “why” behind your missed periods to create a plan that fits you. You deserve clear answers, and we’re here to help you find them.

Personalized Treatments for Amenorrhea

Once we understand what’s causing your amenorrhea, we’ll create a treatment plan tailored to your body and your goals. That might include hormone therapy, nutrition support, stress management, or adjusting medications.

If an underlying condition like PCOS or thyroid imbalance is involved, we’ll treat that, too. At Femme Med and Spa, your care is personal, compassionate, and centered around helping you feel balanced and in control again.
