I'm really worried about my missing period? Help!?!

Three irregular periods in six months still means you did not have enough body fat to have a true period anyway!. At 5'5 and 92 pounds you are still grossly underweight, and your body cannot support a baby when it is underweight so it ceases the menstrual cycle!. You must have a body fat percentage of over 12% for your body to have a period, and you do not!. So you should be concerned because without those hormones, you are setting yourself up for health problems such as vitamin deficiency and osteoperosis!. It's probably something you don't want to hear since you have been coping with anorexia, but you have to gain more weight to get a regular period!. Keep going with your recovery and getting healthier with gaining weight!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Menstrual cycle disruptions, when they occur in relation to eating disorders, are treated as part of a holistic treatment plan!. The first things treated in cases of anorexia are any physical health issue!. Sometimes this will require hospital or clinic stays!. When an anorexic regains some physical health, they general reach a more healthy weight and menstrual cycles often return on their own!. Once some physical health is restored, mental health issues can be addressed!. Often these treatments include counselling or talk therapy, family counselling, cognitive behaviour therapy (to change food, eating and/or exercise behaviours), the use of support groups or group therapy, and nutritional counselling and planning!. Rarely is medication used to treat anorexia unless it is prescribed to treat associated condition such as depression!. Some synthetic hormones may be used to supplement naturally lower levels of hormones, but this will always be done under medical supervision!.
