A couple days ago I noticed a spot of blood on my underwear and thought I got my period, I knew it was due any day. However I still have got nothing else since that. I have had my period for 9 years now and have never had this happen and have always been very consistant. I am fasting for Ramadan, so my diet has obviously changed drastically the last couple weeks, so I don't know if that is part of it. I have heard changing your diet or stress can cause you to skip it, how true is this? I really don't consider myself stressed so don't think that is a factor. I would appreciate any help :)

Are you sexually active? If so, you should consider taking a pregnancy test. Many times during the first trimester you will spot. Just a thought. :)

It could be your diet. A late period can be perfectly normal. To be on the safe side I would recommend taking an at-home pregnancy test. This is probably the only way to know for sure. Good luck!

A sudden change in diet could result to a missing period. but if this last for too long it could be bad. i didnt have my period for a year and when i finally went to a gynocologyst she told me that i had cycts in my uterus...it was pretty bad. but now im ok, but dont make the same mistake. Good luck

Well since you are dieting you could not be getting enough nutrition. Stress and diet do play a big role in menstruation. I would see a OBGYN if this is effecting your every day life. Also, you could be pregnant if you have had sex

Fasting and stress can make you miss your period. I am also fasting and mines was delayed a little. But i dont think its anything to worry about. It happens sometimes so its normal:)

well if u havnt had sex your ok but if you have you might want to worry a bit maybe talk to someone about it. but it might not be that some of the others are right it could just be a change that u might have made in your eatin or something like that.

It is more than likely your diet. Anorexics stop having their's altogether.
