Tina-
I am near your size and sometimes we ample people have issues with our
cycles due to hormone imbalances. Give your doc a call and just ask him or
her what they think. They may say, well wait until June and if you haven't
had a period by then, then come on in. I know when I was at my highest
weight of 468 lbs, I was annovulatory which means I didn't ovulate and I
also didn't always have a period.
I have since lost almost 200 lbs and my periods are getting regular.
Good Luck-
