What Causes No Period For 2 Months White Discharge
Last updated on July 28th, 2018 at 04:36 am
Are you worried you missed your period or have no period for 2 months white discharge? Do you feel you may be pregnant? Did you notice any light spotting before your missed period? Are you experiencing any sign of pregnancy?
If you have no signs of pregnancy with no period for two months, then it could be due to stress, perimenopause, and other causes.
This article explains the reasons for no period for 2 months with white discharge and when you should worry.
What Causes No period for 2 months white discharge
If you have no period for 2 months, then these are the possible causes
1. Pregnancy
Pregnancy is the commonest cause of no period for 2 months. Are you of childbearing age and had unprotected sexual intercourse? Did you notice an increased vaginal discharge before and after your missed period? Any light cramps before your period?
If you get pregnant, your vaginal discharge may be brown or white. Light brown discharge is due to implantation bleeding that occurs a few days before your missed period. Though not all women will show brown spotting when pregnant, it is a very early sign of pregnancy.
Also, women notice an increased white discharge before their period, and this may be due to the effects of pregnancy. During menstrual cycle before pregnancy, women experience a change in their vaginal discharge texture from time to time.
Usually, right after period and before your next period, women experience thick white vaginal discharge. Some women may sometimes have a very dry vagina. This is due to sudden depletion of progesterone hormone after the corpus luteum breaks down.
If your experience a heavy vaginal discharge before your period then it may be an early sign you may be pregnant. If you’ve had no period for 2 months with increased discharge, then it is likely pregnancy.
What to do?
Get a pregnancy test done. Pregnancy test done 2 months after period is accurate. However, pregnancy test before period is not 100 percent accurate.
Check for other signs of pregnancy
- Body weakness
- Fatigue
- Nausea
- Abdominal bloating
- Food craving
- Increased body temperature
- Increased sensitivity to smell and taste
2. Breastfeeding
Are you currently breastfeeding your baby? Then it’s likely the reason you have no period for 2 months white discharge.
During breastfeeding, prolactin hormone that increases breast milk production prevents ovulation from occurring naturally. If ovulation does not occur, then you will not have period.
Should I be worried? Not yet.
As your baby grows and you wean him/her from breast milk, your period will return naturally.
3. Excessive exercise with weight loss
Do you have excessive exercise recently to reduce weight? Excessive exercise with more than 10 percent loss of body weight can affect your hypothalamus normal function.
The hypothalamus, which is situated in the brain, controls ovulation by the pulse-like release of Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). This hormone regulates the production of estrogen and progesterone that directly controls ovulation.
During strenuous exercise, this pulse-like release of GnRH hormone is affected or reduced affecting ovulation and your period.
4. You are taking contraceptives
Are you currently on any pill to prevent pregnancy? Contraceptives act by blocking ovulation and preventing women from having periods for months. Newer types of like Seasonale prevents women from having period for 4 months.
These newer types of contraceptives are taken for continuous 84 days. If you are on birth control and not sure about the type you are on, you should inform your doctor for counseling.
Other types of contraception like a depo-povera shot and intrauterine devices may also cause no period for months.
5. Perimenopause
Are you more than 40 years and have no period for 2 months with white discharge? Then it’s possibly due to peri-menopause.
What is perimenopause?
This simply means the time before menopause. In women peri-menopause occurs between 40 to 50 years. However, it could occur earlier in the 30’s.
Other common symptoms of peri-menopause are hot flashes, sleepless nights, dry vagina, irregular periods and change of mood.
6. Stress
Did you have very stressful weeks or months before your missed period?
Stress can cause no period for two months. This is due to the effect of stress on your hypothalamus resulting in decreased pulse like release of GnRH.
7. Polycystic ovaries
Polycystic ovarian disease, commonly referred to as PCOS, can also cause no period for two months. Women may also experience irregular periods or very light periods.
Symptoms of PCOS are
- Abnormal hair distribution
- Difficulty conceiving
- Increased body weight or obesity
- Irregular menstruation
- Light period or very heavy period flow
- Acne
Other possible causes of no period for months are
8. Thyroid diseases
9. Scarring of the uterus from previous surgeries
10. Asherman syndrome
What to do after missed period for 2 months with white discharge?
Missed period for 2 months? Here’s what you need to do:

I had protected sex end of january and had normal periods february and march, then april my periods came for 1 day then may I didn’t get my periods now we are in the middle of June still no periods but I have no pregnancy symptoms but lately I’m suffering from constipation
Dr Dunn A.
There are many reasons your period is irregular and light.
If you are surely not pregnant, your hormones may have been affected due to your age, stress and severe weight loss.
In addition, having a period that lasts for a day is abnormal.

Hi Dr dunn a, i have missed my period for 3month now with white discharge, without pregnant, what medication can take to see it back
Tisha
I had protected sxx most of the times. But at some times I took ipills. I had normal periods always. But since two months I have no periods and a lot of white discharge which is sometimes semisolid and sometimes thin and transparent and watery. I had my ultrasound done and my right ovary had certain bulkiness but my left ovary was normal. I don’t have any symptoms of Pcos like growth of hair on body or whatever. It’s only this that I have missed my periods. My exams are going on but I don’t think I take a lot of stress. Please suggest what to do

I’m 13 and I got my period on April 1st of 2017.
I have had my period for the months April and may but my June period hasn’t came yet and I’m 18 days late. I have not had any sexual interaction and I’m kind of afraid on why I haven’t had my period. Can u help me out
Dr Dunn A.
please relax and don’t panic. At 13 years after your period, it possible that your period will fluctuate. It will come back and there is nothing wrong with you. It occurs because your hormones are trying to settle. At 20 years, it should be regular.

Good morning, I’m 21yrs of age i had my period May and it came out well but the month of June and July I didn’t see my period yet and have done urine and blood pregnancy test it was negative and I also treat myself for malaria and infection but still I didn’t see my period…
Dr Dunn A.
Take a test after 7 days; if its negative, it’s likely hormone imbalance. Chill out and relax, it should come if you are not pregnant.

Dr Dunn A.
You are already close to menopause age (51) so your period will be delayed or irregular. That’s why.

I notice there are a lot of watery white discharges came out when i carry heavy things. No signs of pregnancy even my body did not change.

Hormone imbalance can cause delayed period for months, especially at a young age. Nevertheless, pregnancy is the most common reason for 2 months late period.
