Answer
Hi Eva,

Well Since you have missed a period, you have to rule out pregnancy. Cramping, can sometimes be associated with pregnancy as well.

You can either do a home pregnancy test, or see your physician, for a test.If pregnancy is ruled out, then missing your period could be due to a hormonal imbalance, which is common also.

First step is to rule pregnancy out, and if its a negative, then you need to find out why you are missing periods, and get the appropriate treatment.

Hope this is of some help.
