late periods??

Question

Any weird reasons for periods being late other than the obvious? Stress, sick, etc?

Answer

Different medications can delay it. Obviously birth control can but so can antipsychotics (antidepressants), some allergy meds, steroids, thyroid meds, blood pressure meds, etc. other factors are any lifestyle changes like a drastic change in diet, exercise, sleeping habits, weight loss, weight gain... if you're over or under weight that can also change you period. Honestly just about everything factors into it.

I'm currently about 4 days late but I've skipped periods entirely before when I was stressed or something big was happening so I'm not sure if I should worry or not. The thing is that almost all of the things that are known to delay it that I listed above are things that I've done since my last period so idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ between work, stress, being sick, getting engaged, etc. I'm surprised I'm not dead 😂💀

Answer

A change in Diet, Sleep Schedule, and exercise can change it. Mine is 2 days late right now but that's just because tennis started on Monday and I've had harsh workouts. Stress can also delay your period.
