It’s bad because your body needs to occasionally have one or it goes out of whack and malfunctions.
It doesn’t need to have them a LOT. Just occasionally. Once or twice a year is fine (there are women on birth control who only have one every six months and seem to be fine). But it needs to have them at some point or… nasty things happen. Medically.
Any system, be it biological or mechanical, needs to run through its paces once in a while (almost said “periodically” but caught myself 😉 ) or it deteriorates.
Actually lack of periods can be caused by birth control implants. That’s perfectly natural. And periods suck (citation: I’m on mine, last few days, no cramps but still icky brown goo)

No periods? That’s a bad thing… why again?
Periods are a good thing, how can you end sentences without them?
Can’t you just use question marks?
Is it possible to make every sentence a question?
Could that be something we can discover with SCIENCE?
Is there anything that CAN’T be discovered with science?
What about matters that can only be viewed subjectively?
Nevertheless, aren’t the social sciences objective studies of subjective matters?

Huh. Well, you learn something new every day, so they say. Thanks for sharing your medical knowledge!

Amenorrhea caused by low levels of fat, excessive workout and/or sudden weight loss comes with different side effects, like osteoporosis
Um, wouldn’t the weight loss be what causes the osteoporosis?
More likely hormonal imbalances caused by the weight loss.
