I became a vegetarian about 5 weeks ago and my period is a week late but I am not pregnant is it my new diet ?

Question

usually my period is very regular so when it didn't come I took a home pregnancy test ( actually 3 of them ) and I am not pregnant. I am 36 years old and have no other signs or symptoms.

Answer 1

Since none of us are doctors on here, perhaps you should see your doctor.

Answer 2

You're probably not getting enough protein. Eat some fish, or if you're a strict veg, then get some soy protein in your diet every day. There are a lot of good nutrients in meat that you're not getting anymore. You really should make an appointment with a nutritionist to make sure you're getting everything your body needs.
