my period left me! Also, fasting with broken bones

hey guys! I have a couple questions for you. Ive been 100% raw since the end of July, and was 90% for June and July and 100% for May, and in July I randomly lost my period. In March, I stopped taking birth control, and March - May isn't really enough time for me to know what my normal periods look like. So I don't know what's going on. I've always had extremely light periods, and my period in may and June were pretty much not there, they came for one day and there was pretty much no blood. I figure that's because I had no waste to dispose of because I was raw.

I saw the doctor, and he said that some women naturally only get their period 3 times a year, I'm thinking I must be one of them? I figure it can't be that I'm missing nutrients or starving myself, because I feel wonderful and healthy and my bloodwork has all come back fine. I wouldn't say I'm exactly WORRIED about this, just curious about what you all think or if you've had similar experiences. (Oh, and, I'm definitely not pregnant!)

Also, I wanted to ask some things about fasting. I have decided I want to try doing a water fast. 2 weeks ago I broke a couple bones in my face, and they operated last week and everything is good now, but I'm not fully healed. Because of this, I haven't been exersising (usually I get a lot of excersise) so fasting at a time like now would be a good idea. At the same time, I don't want to not give my body enough nutrients and then slow down the healing process and set myself back. I only want to be as healthy as i can be! :)

thanks
