Secondary amenorrhea is a gynecologic condition characterized by the cessation of menses for three consecutive months in individuals with previously regular menstrual cycles, or for six months in those with a history of irregular menstruation, following menarche

Affecting females of reproductive age, it reflects a disruption within the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, endocrine regulation, or the uterine outflow tract

Pathophysiologic mechanisms typically stem from anovulation or hormonal dysregulation caused by functional hypothalamic suppression, hyperandrogenism, hyperprolactinemia, thyroid dysfunction, primary ovarian insufficiency, or acquired intrauterine adhesions, after physiologic causes such as pregnancy and lactation have been excluded
