The term for what you have is called secondary amenorrhea. It means that you had the normal onset of your period but then no period for at least six months. The typical workup involves ruling out diabetes, thyroid disease, the elevation of a hormone called prolactin, and ovarian failure. In addition, assessment of the uterine anatomy is important, which is usually with an ultrasound. I highly recommend that you be seen by an OB/GYN to assess it further.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
