I love the sims 3 community goodnight

Hi everyone,

I (20F) haven't had a menstrual period since February 2026 and I'm trying to understand what could potentially cause this while I wait for specialist appointments.

Pregnancy has been ruled out, and my doctors have told me that my hormone tests are within normal ranges, this includes thyroid and other factors have also been ruled out. I have also been investigated for PCOS (PMOS) and was told that I do not have it.

My GP has referred me for a DEXA scan and I already have an appointment booked with an endocrinologist, but the appointments are still some time away and I'm feeling anxious about the situation.

A few things that may be relevant:

- I am a university student.

- I have not had a period at all since February.

- Pregnancy and PCOS have been ruled out.

- I go to the gym maybe twice a week, have a healthy weight for a woman my age (I am thin and a bit more toned than average)

- I came off the Yasmin pill December last year.

I am mainly wondering:

1. What conditions can cause amenorrhea when hormone levels appear normal and PCOS has been excluded?

2. Is there anything specific I should discuss with the endocrinologist when I see them?

I know nobody can diagnose me over the internet, but I'd appreciate any ideas about possible causes or questions I should ask my specialist.

Thank you.

Hi everyone lol (20F)

This is a bit embarrassing to admit, but I was wondering if anyone else feels the same way.

I'm a unimelb student transferring to B ARTS next sem due to finding a new passion and lately I've realised that my entire life pretty much consists of uni, my boyfriend, and occasionally going to the gym. Outside of that, I don't really have much going on socially.

I don't go to parties, I don't have a big friendship group not that everyone needs one but just setting the mood, and I rarely get invited out to things. Most of the time I'm either studying, spending time with my partner, or at home. When people talk about all the friends they've made at university, clubs they're involved in, or things they're doing every weekend, I honestly can't relate.

Recently, I also made the decision to end a friendship that had become quite toxic. Looking back, I realised it was actually making me feel even lonelier. It sounds strange, but being friends with someone who constantly made me feel unheard and judged was somehow worse than being alone. Even though I think it was the right decision, it has left me feeling like my social circle is basically non-existent and I may have protected my peace too much lol.

Part of it is probably because I'm naturally quiet and introverted which might lowkey be a skill issue LMAO and I find making and maintaining friendships harder than most people seem to.

University can feel like a place where everyone already has their people, while I'm still trying to figure out where I fit in. I'm not necessarily unhappy with my life I love my goals in my degree, I'm very happy in my relationship, and I enjoy going to the gym (occasionally) but sometimes I feel like I don't really have much of an identity or support network outside of those things.

I also just lowkey want to make a genuine connection with someone, preferably someone with no ulterior motives and just someone or anyone to bond with.

I know this is not an original experience but I am definitely at the point now where it is exam season, then holidays, and I just feel incredibly social-deprived and wanting to meet some friends.

I don't mind if anyone dm's me or smth on here also :)
