What is an absent period (amenorrhoea)?

Periods happen as part of the natural menstrual cycle. They usually happen every month. It is normal to miss periods at different times in your life. An absent period (Amenorrhoea) is when you don’t get your period at all. The two types of amenorrhea are: 

  • Primary amenorrhoea – Khi chưa có kinh nguyệt ở tuổi 16
  • Secondary amenorrhoea – Khi không có kinh nguyệt trong 3 tháng liên tiếp trở lên

Your GP will talk to you about your medical history and the reason you might not be getting your period.
