Amenorrhea is the absence of menstrual bleeding, that is they never start or they cease to occur. The absence of menstual bleeding is normal only before puberty, during pregnancy and after menopause.
The causes for the absence of periods may be as a result of abnormalities in brain function, pituitary, thyroid and adrenal glands, ovaries or really, any part of the reproductive system. The reproductive organs are very sensitive to shocks, energy levels and deep seated attitudes.
Even excessive exercise can effect the pituitary gland to cause periods to stop .
Shocks and emotional distrurbances also have an effect on the fine balance of the female hormones.
To regulate the female cycle I have put together a mix of herbs that includes Phytolacca, Pulsatilla, Chamomile, Buchu, Blue Cohosh, Sarsaparilla, and Blue Flag along with the Bach Flowers Scleranthus, Walnut and Mimulus.
Together these herbs will sooth and calm the nervous system, re-balance the hormones of the adrenals, pituitary and thyroid glands to regulate the menstrual cycle and bring a sense of control back to life.
