Hi, Glo,

 

Everything that I've read is that you can't get pregnant once you haven't had a period for a year. I'm not a medical doctor, so I'd definitely consult with your doctor to confirm what I've read.

 

Take care and keep us posted!

I believe that going 2 full years without a period is therefore safe to have sex without protection.
