An excess of another hormone produced by the hypothalamus called prolactin may also cause infrequent or absent periods. Some women with excess prolactin also start to produce a small amount of milk from their breasts. Some of these women may have a small benign tumour in the pituitary gland which is causing the overproduction of the hormone.
