I'm a 33-y/o reasonably healthy SWF and mother of one 11-y/o special needs boy. My only real health issue is obesity, I'm about 100+ overweight. I've always engaged in safe sex if I wasn't completely familiar with my partner's history, and have been in a long-term relationship for years with one man. I can't remember the last time I had a period. I know it was at least July, maybe August. I used to be good at keeping track, but lately I've gotten off schedule and don't really track anymore. I don't believe I had one in September. I've taken 2 pregnancy tests recently and both were negative, so why no period??? I'm only 33 and doubt it's menopause this early. I'm on no birth control currently. I know sometimes stress plays a part and I have been under A LOT of stress lately re: money, bills, paying rent, etc. Could STRESS delay a period for 2 months??? I hope someone can shed some light on this for me. Thanks.

Usually if the period is late and you are not pregnant, the cause is hormonal. This means that you are not ovulating regularly for some reason. Missed periods are often caused as a result of undergoing a lot of stress. Stress can upset the normal hormonal balance in your body, causing your period to come late, or skip for one month. Some other characteristic causes of missed periods include undergoing any major changes in your life, such as moving, starting a new job, or changed eating or exercise habits.It may also be gland problems (pituitary, thyroid, or adrenal) or reproductive problems
If you miss more than three cycles or have any symptoms that are worrying you, you should see your doctor to check for the cause of the problem. Usually it does not turn out to be serious and may resolve on its own. But it is advisable to invest in your health before it gets out of control. Whether or not you are trying to get pregnant, the associated hormonal imbalances caused by missed periods may take a toll on your health in the long run. Avoid that by getting in control of your cycles.

Absolutely. Stress is a major factor and sometimes your period just won't come until most of that stress is gone. It could be both a mixture of stress and obesity as obesity can cause more problems with just about anything.
I'd recommend speaking to your doctor about everything.

my cousin went through menopause at 28. her doctors didnt think that's what it was for her either, but that's what it was. You're not as young as you think. However, it could be ovarian cysts, or cervical cysts. things like that. I went an entire year with out having a period, and my doctor had to put me on estrogen to kick start them again... and then I got pregnant like the first month

Yes, ir could be stress related. Or, your egg could have gotten lost in the fallopian tube. You might want to go to your OB/GYN to get this accurately diagnosed and checked over. Good luck.

stress can delay your period but not for months.Cyst on the ovaries or cancer of the ovaries can cause no period.But lets just hope you are pregnant.Go to doc to get checked.You will be surprised on how many of those pregnancy test are incorrect.

you would be surprised what role stress plays in our lives. It can make up skip periods and even lose weight! Not eating right can also make you skip a period (or five).

it could be stress but you should probably visit a doctor i think missing it for more than a month at any one time is cause for concerns.
