Question: I have not seen my period in 8 months nowI am not sexually active
I am starting to get very scared
Answer: Hi a lot of things can affect how and if you will see your period 
1 Age depending on your age usually at about early 40s onward different people experience cessation of their menstruation which is a natural order of things

2 Previous infections and scarring  around the uterus this could happen due to previous dilation and curretage a process of abortion this affects the process that results in menstruation

3 Hormonal issues this could be due to issues around the thyroid gland cases of polycystic ovary syndrome etc

4 Drugs previous use of contraceptives can also cause it this happens like a residual effect of it in some way

5 Body changes eg weight loss

I am not sure of which might apply in your case but a visit to a doctor will help to arrive at what might be the exact cause
