Amenorrhea Secondary

Question: Does having Secondary amenorrhea with unprotected sex mean pregnancy? I had unprotected sex two nights ago, but the guy I had sex with did not ejaculate to my knowledge, and it was hard for his penis to stay in me for some reason. I have secondary amenorrhea because in the past I have suffered from anoreixa and bulimia, but now am at a healthy weight. Even though I havent had a period in 2-3 years, can I still get pregnant? Even though I am not getting my period do I still release eggs? Im really scared, please help.

Answer: Amenorrhea is absence of menstruation for the period more than 6 months. In general during amenorrhea doctors can discover pretty serious hormonal disturbances. In general amenorrhea and anovulation are equal (means pregnancy is not possible). In my 34 years practice only once I had a case of pregnancy in amenorrheic woman. So your chances to be pregnant are almost none. Read more in http://www.menstrual-cycle.info Be Healthy and Happy!

Question: Is there a cure for Secondary Amenorrhea? I'm 15 and I haven't had my period in 14 months. I went to the doctor but my mom let me get Birth Control. Is there anything I can do to get my period back naturally?

Answer: Secondary to what? If it's secondary, then it's caused by another condition - You will probably have to resolve the primary problem before your period will be normal. In my opinion, at your age, I'd rather not have my period. That's just me- 20 years later. I had really sketchy periods in my early teens - I'd go 40 days then 15 days then a normal 28 day cycle - I know the stress of worrying about when or if your period is going to come is tough - especially when you've got "life" to worry about. What's your mom's objection to birth control? Does she think you're going to have sex? Is she worried about the side effects? I think 15 is pretty young for BC, but if it would help regulate your periods, then it seems like your doctor might recommend it. I hope you feel well soon.

Question: Does ovulation still occur while taking prometrium for secondary amenorrhea? My doctor diagnosed me with secondary amenorrhea .I was prescribed prometrium 200mg caps ,which i take 2 caps at bedtime a total of 400mg daily.I'm trying to conceive . My question is does my body still ovulate while taking prometrium,or does the pills just make me have my period only without ovulation occuring? Can i get pregnant while taking Prometrium pills?

Answer: No, you will not ovulate while taking prometrium. Prometrium is a form of progesterone and progesterone suppresses ovulation. Your doctor probably is giving you prometrium to induce a period and then you can start fresh with your next cycle. It is very unlikely that you will get pregnant while on prometrium. Good luck next cycle, I hope you get your +++ soon!!
