In March 2014 , I visited my OB/GYN concerning my absent menstrual cycle of which I had not seen in three years. After the initial consultation, he ended up ordering bloodwork to check my FSH level, LH level, T3 and T4 levels, and white blood cell count among other tests...in all I believe he checked nine different things...the only thing that came back abnormal was my androgen level and that was in the 209 range. He also prescribed me some synthetic progesterone (medroxyprogesterone acetate 5mg for 5 days) and I ended up having a menstrual cycle eight days after the withdrawal of the medication. When I consulted with him about the results of my bloodwork he advised me that it was likely the weight that I had put on that has caused my absent menstrual cycle and diagnosed me as having an annovulatory cycle.

Although this is quite possible, I don't believe it is the entire reason that I'm experiencing an absent menstrual cycle. I began menstruating at 11 years old patientold (I'm now 29 years old patientold) and have always had irregular periods that would not come for months at a time (9- 10 months sometimes more) after I experienced my first one. Further, up until four years old patientago, I weighed 130 pounds and still had this difficulty with my menstrual cycle where I would not see it for months or even years old patientat a time... I now weigh 220 pounds. I guess my question is, based solely on the information I have provided, do you think it may be possible that there are other reasons for my absent menstrual cycle? Do you think scheduling an appointment with an endocrinologist would be helpful? If so, would the endocrinologist be able to run further bloodwork that could tell me more about the cause of my absent menstrual cycle? I look forward to your response.

Edit: My most recent pap test that was completed in March 2014 was normal.
