Perhaps when you next see your doctor you could usefully ask again about diet and about exercise, because maybe a different diet with slight increase in calorie intake, coupled with the right amount of exercise to burn off those additional calories, would do the trick nicely.
I wish you good luck!
If your GP isn't being helpful try calling the family planning helpline (I think they have their own website - try google), I've used it before and they were really helpful. Or you could find your nearest clinic and book an appointment to see a nurse.
I don't think you should worry too much at this point though - there are so many things that can affect your periods; stress, change in diet, antibiotics, even a slight change in lifestyle.
I take it your doctor has checked your thyroid gland? If not maybe you should ask for tests as this can cause weight loss and changes to your period.
Hope you get it sorted : )
The comment from your doctor was spot on, it was obvious to him and me that you don't eat enough and you confirmed it by saying you diet constantly. Why?
You are trying to find reasons why everything is ok with that by saying you didn't have a problem two years ago when you were ill. Your body is probably feeling the effects of under eating more now. You say you are feeling fat and this appears to be the problem to overcome, you are not fat, I can see from here! Why not stop the dieting, eat normally and see if things improve?
Your body is telling you things could be better, you do need help to get over this denial but if you are not prepared to do something... I know how your doctor feels he has many other patients and he has given you good advice, you won't take it so what can he do?
You are now saying you are ok but if you want your periods back to normal you have to give your body something to work with. Try a gradual change. I see your answer regarding depression and I think this could be a physicological problem effecting you physically. You do not appear a happy bunny.
It's time to sort it out before you do get long term problems, try another doctor who may be more sympathetic. I'm concern about your eating habits so do it for me please!
