Dear Mr Bate,
I am far from looking at hormones only, as you suggest. I have read carefully
all posts about the case of teenage girl and from her mother s words she seems
to be a normal healthy vegetarian girl ( by the way, vegetarian diet, if it is
a complete diet, is perfect for a teenager), whose only " problem" seems to be
lack of menses. I have seen cases of women who have menses every 4 or every 6
or every 12 months and they are perfectly healthy happy mothers with normal
hormone tests but on the other hand I have seen women those were also healthy
while teenagers and because they did not have menses every month they were given
hormonal treatment which ruined their health forever...
My only idea is that there are many cases when lack of menses every month can be
perfectly normal if all the other health indicators are normal (including
hormones) and besides putting pressure on a child in such a delicate
psychological period is not beneficial
With respect
Andreea

Modern science tests often come to a blind end.
All tests, hormones normal does not mean that everything is OK.
A Dr. looks at only hormones. If a woman is not menatlly ready to
conceive out of fear of added responsibility, no conception even if
hormones within normal range!
