Hi and thanks for using the forum.

It is not unusual to have an "off" period every once in a while.  This can especially happen when you are under some stress (like starting a new job).  So, I would not be too concerned yet.  Wait and see how things go with your next period.  If that one is off too and you are concerned, then you should see your OB/GYN.  I hope this helps.  good luck.
