        It could be a sign of something wrong with your body, premature menopause, thyroid problems or polycystic ovaries. Or perhaps if you’re not on birth control anymore you could be pregnant?

    You need to see a doctor.

    You should research health issues using reputable websites rather than asking a bunch of random internet people for their opinion.

    In this case, here's a reasonable place to start:

    This happened to me the first time I went off birth control pills. A few years later, I went back on the pill, and my period came back. And then, when I went off of them again,I got my period back six weeks later, and it's been normal ever since. The birth control
    pills mess things up, sometimes. But, yeah, see a doctor.

    How long have you been off the pill? If it’s only been a couple months I wouldn’t be concerned since it can take some time for your hormones to get back to normal. If it’s been over 6 months tho you should probably go to the doctor.
