Sorry boys -- this one is a Q for the ladies

Hi ladies,

I've always had irregular periods but on this particular bender I haven't had a period for maybe 5 months? My PCP is well aware of my history w alcohol, and wants to send me for a bunch of hormonal tests (we already did the other one). Has anyone else experienced that?

Yea I have, I went 3 years without a period in my 20s, Dr ran lots of tests but came back nothing. I was taking a lot of drugs at the time, well a lot of weekend drug use anyway. One day it just came back, I was drinking and taking drugs still so it wasn't because I gave up.
I think it may have been emotional but I will never really know.

I think stress can effect hormones. I'm not a doctor tho.
