Hi kaylalovesjimmy2004, welcome!

Infections aren't good things to ignore. I hope yours is under control and you are feeling better now. There are a number of things that can prevent getting your period. If you are on hormonal contraceptives they can sometimes cause you to skip periods. Even cycling naturally we can sometimes have anovulary cycles. Poor nutrition can lead to secondary amenorrhea where your reproductive organs shut down and your infection may have been the cause as illness and stress can delay or stop ovulation if you are cycling naturally. Skipping a period isn't usually cause for concern but if you miss 2 in a row I think you should see your doctor about it to see what's going on. If you think there is any chance that you might be pregnant you can test to see where you are. Test kits are pretty accurate after missing a period. Let us know how you're doing, ok?

Good luck and hugs,

      Jill
