I do agree that when the body stops producing a period, there is usually a good reason, whether it be for over weight, under weight, intense training or illness. I just thought I'd throw out there to those who might be interested... Eastern medicine can be excellent at helping to restore the balance in your body. An acupuncturist (especially one that specializes in women or fertility) can find an imbalance in your body and fix the issue with needles or herbs.
I once had a period that wouldn't stop and I was already anemic... They made up a gross packet of herbs for me to boil and drink, and I was fixed within a day. I don't think this solution is for everyone... sometimes just letting your body do what it needs for a while is good. But if anyone is very concerned with future fertility issues, this might be something to try. If nothing else, you will be more balanced overall.
On a side note: Almost every woman I know who was unable to conceive, after getting acupuncture fertility treatments, was able to have a baby.
... Where western medicine leaves off, eastern medicine seems to pick up.
