it is entirely possible that she has inherited it, but how tall is she?
for 111 pounds, she must either be quite short (not that being short is
bad) or really really thin..i am asking because when women are too thin
that can make them not have periods too. does she have pap smears?
maybe you should give her some reading. if she has never had a period
at 19 her endometrium must be very thick, she needs to really have a
period about every three months at least. hope you can convince her:)
love,paula
