Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
You would be having a hypoplastic uterus or premature ovarian failure.
In that case, the only reliable way to menstruate is to take cyclical hormones, which you are doing.
The leg pain also could be a potential side effect.
However, please upload your reports.
As such, without artificial hormones, you would have to do without a period.
Take care.
