I hope someone can make some sense of whats wrong with me.
I'm a 26 yr old female.
I havent had a period in over 5 months now.
I'm normally very skinny and for the past couple of months my stomach is always bloated.
I eat normal, regular meals.
I stress alot and am quite skinny but I have always been this way, even when my periods were normal so this cant be part of the cause.
I am a virgin in every sense of the word so there is no chance that I could be pregnant.
Also my breasts are quite swollen and sore. And I am having trouble getting to sleep.
Its almost like I have PMS, but its constant but with no period.
I dont know if this is any help but I am also having ringing in the ears, I crave Garlic like crazy and I get very hungry late at night, which are all things I didnt have before.
I have had a full blood test by my doctor and it came back right in the middle of normal for all my hormone levels.
Anyone got any ideas whats going on ? I guess the thing I am trying to work out the most is why my periods have stopped and if they are likely to come back or not ?
Any help would be great, my GP is hopeless. SInce my bloodtest came back fine she says there is nothing wrong with me.

Hi Hon! I would like you to DEMAND a pelvic ultrasound! I believe you have Polycystic Ovaries! These make menstruation VERY irregular sometimes stopping all together! It mimics pregnany symptoms to a T actually! The only way of detecting this is via a ultrasound also know it is VERY common! And quite treatable! IF she doens't give you one, drop her!!! This is YOUR HEALTH!!! And don't ever stand for medicore treatment! YOU know your body better than anyone, and it is YOU who has to fight for appropriate care, with some doctors who have the God complex - If I can't fix it, then there is nothing to fix!!! - Please let me know how you make out OK? Good luck and ehalth honey!
It's been 5 months since I've had my period. No spotting, nothing. My stomach also feels bloated. I'm always hungry I was told as a teenager (35 now) that I have P.C.O.S. (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) and was told I'd never be able to have kids. Well I have two daughters (born in 2016 & 2019, both C-Sections) with my last daughter I was talked into having my tubes taken out. I've been getting the side (overy) pain often (a symptom of PCOS) So I'm guessing it must be that? On top of taking new medications, stress, starting to physically work out again. I also take thyroid medication for hypothyroidism. It's been a very long time since I've had my PCOS checked. I guess I need to get on making an appointment to get an ultrasound and have an updated check up because it's kind of making me freak out. I haven't had any symptoms in years and now it seems back. Otherwise, I don't know what else it could stem from.
