Has anyone ever missed a period due to stress????

I hope I am in the right Forum, I have been under a lot of stress and wondered if that can cause your menstrual cycle to be late, I never had that problem so I am a little confused, As far as the chance of being pregnant very slim.and I have taken a test and its negative..The longer I go with out starting seems like it just stresses me out even more!!!

As hard as it may be and I know it's easier said than done but try not to worry.Stress can cause your period to be late.If I were you I would give it a little more time depending on how long it's been already(if its less than a week late) and then if you do not get your period it would be best to see your doctor just in case.

Thank you so much for your advise! I was getting a little worried I have had one child and lost another one at 6 months pregnant so I don't plan on having any more and I can't take birth control due to the estrogen making my thyroid go out of wack so my boyfriend is actually scheduled for a vasectomy next week, so I have been completely stressed out a long with other things I actually did start today:) but I am gonna watch it n still go to the doctor because I have never been late and here it is 9 days later, but thanks again!

It is soo common. Stress affects your hormones greatly, as well as diet and exercise. Some people miss an entire cycle due to stress.
