This occurs when there have been no periods for a period of more than 6 months in a female who has previously had periods (other than due to pregnancy). Commonly secondary amenorrhoea is due to dysfunction of the hypothalmic-pituitary axis. Rarely this condition may be due to ovarian or endometrial causes.
