You're right. Stress and pregnancy can cause a woman to miss or be late on her period. Other things include, weight (too much or too little), extreme weight gain or loss, lack of sleep, poor diet, iron deficiency, or too much exercise. And some women are just not "regular" every month.
Also, it's normal for some women to have a period every 30 or 31 days... or even every 24 days or so. It can vary from one woman to another. If you are concerned about your late or missed period, you should talk to your doctor. Especially if this isn't "normal" for you.
Blessings of health to you.

Benig underweight is one of the commonly known ones, as well as being sick for an extended time (I remember skipping a period during a particular summer that I was sick for nearly a month). But it can also happen to women as they age. Physiology changes. One that may not be known is that as a young woman in her 20s will go through it in her mid-to-late 20s. It hit me severely, when I was 27. Perhaps it happens moreso to those who have not had babies. But my body had changed. My period was irregular for over a year, and finally it established regularity. I heard that this was actually COMMON. But not so common among mothers. Despite this, a woman's menstrual cycle will change as she ages. That's fairly obvious, but not obvious enough.

Bad nutrition could also be a cause. Sometimes home tests dont work for some people, If you really wanna be sure about a negative result you should go see your doctor.
