Primary amenorrhoea is one of the common reproductive disorders affecting females and it could be due to may causes including structural, functional and endocrine abnormalities. We reported three young women presented with primary amenorrhoea, where the investigations confirmed the diagnosis of Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser Syndrome (MRKHS) in all three cases. Our objective of reporting these case series was to highlight the importance of careful evaluation the of all patients with primary amenorrhoea and to avoid unnecessary oestrogen treatment.
