What are the potential causes of a four-month absence of menstruation (amenorrhea) after initially using prescribed medication to induce a period, and why might the treatment fail to work upon repeating it?

Asked by Female, 25 · 13 days ago

When medication like progesterone successfully induces a period once but fails the second time, it often means your estrogen levels may currently be too low to build up the uterine lining, leaving nothing to shed. Other common possibilities include pregnancy, high stress, thyroid imbalances, elevated prolactin levels, or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Please rest assured that this is a very common issue with clear steps to resolve it. I highly recommend consulting your doctor.
