Secondary amenorrhea can only be treated by treating the underlying cause. Secondary amenorrhea is a symptom of other problems and you should be tested for common illnesses that can cause secondary amenorrhea such as thyroid function problems and progestin imbalances.

Birth control pills can be given to treat the amenorrhea so that the periods are regular. It is also wise to eat a well-balanced diet. Cysts may also cause the amenorrhea therefore medication can be given to disolve or they can be removed surgically.

Treatment depends on the cause of the amenorrhea. So the first step would be to see a GYN to help you discover the root cause, and then address it appropriately.
