One must get menses at least every 3 months. So there is no need to induce menses before that. If you continue to remain amenorrhic, there is chance of endometrial hyperplasia. Hence the importance of inducing periods. Meprate can be used. Short course won’t lead to weight gain. You can also opt for natural micronised progesterone
