Answer 1

You are fine and absolutely normal. Your period is based on when you ovulate (release the egg), and your ovulation can be delayed by many factors such as stress, travelling, increase/decrease exercise weight loss/gain, illness, etc etc. You may have just had your ovulation delayed, so if you know you aren't pregnant, you are just fine. If you go months and months without your period, go see a doctor, but our bodies definitely change with the scene we're in, and so aren't always regular.

Answer 2

I have been having weird periods myself and can relate! Stress can really affect periods and can do weird things to the cycle (ie. delay, shorten or elongate the period). If it occurs for more than 3 months, just ask the Dr. They can put you on the pill to help regulate the cycle or it can sort itself out over time.
