Strenuous exercise -no period for 3 months?
I have read other answers but they are not confirming my questions.
I have been running 4-5 days a week for 3 months now, progressing from 30minutes to 1 1/2 hours.
And I just noticed the other day that during this whole time I have not had my period, I'm 18 and a virgin, so is it the physical strain on my body causing this?? I'm also a vegetarian ~

this happened to an old roommate of mine. she exercised strenuously (at least 2 hrs a day everyday) and she had no periods. i think during periods of stress, your period may not come. (it's happened to me during stressful times in my life, like a death in the family, or a break up with a boyfriend).
not sure the medical reason, but you should cut back on the physical exercise some and also go see an OB/Gyn.

Yes, extreme exercising can have an effect on your periods. Same with your diet.
