Answer #1

It’s probably due to you being young, so I wouldn’t panic over it yet. It could have to do with extreme weight loss, so if you’ve lost a lot of weight recently, see a doctor to get back to a healthy weight. It could also be due to your diet.
In any case, talk to your mom, and/or a doctor.

Answer #2

You should get a blood test done and have your doctor check the hormone called Prolactin and also the thyroid stimulating hormone.

If you’re too think or too heavy, it could cause this.You may be having a problem with your thyroid gland, or another hormonal problem.

Are you on the pill? Cause that messes with your period too.
