Not to worry, once you get some body fat you will resume your menstrual cycle. It's actually quite healthy to have less menstrual cycles in your life time. :)
Anorexic
Amenorrea
Amenorrhea, which simply means the abscence of a menstrual period. Did he also say the word anorexia to you?
Secondary amenhorria.
Primary means the period never ever started,
but secondary means it started as a yoiung woman should, and was interrupted for some reason.
Good luck.
