Other Answers:
YES - I'd be very concerned - make an appointment with your gyn and GO to it.
If you have not had a period since Feb. 06 and are not pregnant you should see a gynecologist as soon as possible and insist something be done. I have endometriosis and there are treatments but you should be definetely diagnosed by your OBGYN.
If you've had sex since February then you may be pregnant. Other things can stop periods though like long distance running or anorexia.
It may or may not be cause for alarm. This is defenitely something you should consult with your gyno about though. With negative pregnancy tests coming back I would think that there is something else going on that needs to be figured out. I have been diagnosed with endometriosis since January of 01', and it is very hard for a doctor to diagnose. It could be the endo that is preventing your ovulation cycle, however you might also be doing too much strenuous activity, etc. As is said, defenetily discuss your symtoms and or questions with your gyno.
do not be overly concerned. i went years without a period. have
the doc test or measure your prolactin level. that was my problem, it was too high. i was given medicine that made my
body think i was pregnant. i had morning sickness every morning, it made my life a living hell. and now my periods are
ever so painful and sometimes come two or three times in one
month. good luck.
I would. Go to a doctor and be checked out.
Endymetriosis can be a very serious problem. Get to your OB/Gyn and get treatment immediately before it becomes more serious.
Yes, I would be concerned. Are you on brith control pills? I was on birth control pills and had a peroid for 6 months straight, my doctor wouldnt do anything about i he kept telling me to keep track of it. well I went to another doctor and here I was slowly hemeraging because the birth control pills werent strong enough.
Yeah

I have irregular periods. They usually come about every 12 weeks (3 months). My doctor just told me last week at my yearly check-up that as long as they come every 4 months or less, then I'm fine, but if they start getting farther apart than they are now, we need to check it out further. I would say since February was nearly 5 months ago, you probably have an underlying problem that you need to get fixed. Hope this helps!
Its commom to be irregular if you have endometriosis. But I'd still go to a doctor and check it out. I have endometriosis, since I was 13. I'm now 26 and had to have a hysterectomy last month. I know what I'm talking about. I won't get into details, but there could be much more going on than just endo. Have you been diagnosed by surgery? That's the only way to do it. If you'd like to know more, email me. I'm more than willing to share my story with you so it won't become your story as well.

I wish you the best of luck and please email me and let me know the outcome of all this.
I dont know?
