You have to go to a Gynaecologist.
In fact you should have consulted a Gynaecologist 5 years ago.
One thing which must be diagnosed in time is whether you have any structural abnormality of your genital organs. If such a problem is there and not treated in time, it may lead to permanent damage to your organs.

Yes being on the higher side of the BMI is an important reason for not getting periods
Rather than being scared you need investigations and medicines to help you get your periods
