Hello everyone, my name is Cordelia Hudson and Im a Private First class in the United States Marine Corps. My fiancé and I are thinking about having a baby... and recently have started trying. One thing I am very confused about is... my period. I haven't had a period since I joined the Marine Corps, the training was extremely stressfull on my body, well I have been in my Job school now for about three months so things have been less stressful and yet I still haven't had a period. Despite this, can my fiancé and I still get pregnant or do I have to see a doctor about trying to "get my period back" first? Thank you so much

You can still get pregnant, but it is highly advisable that you see your doctor about your period first. It may be simple amenorrhea (lack of period) caused by physical and mental stress put on by the Corps, but you should be checked out to be sure.
