I have anxiety disorder and bipolar. I know there is some link between stress and irregulars periods but the drs won't admit this. I am not sure why. It seems when I am having different phases my periods are different. When I am manic my periods are light; when I am depressed they are heavy. Is it my period causing this change of moods or is it my moods causing the change in my flows?

Yep, does that to mine, too. My gyno told me it was probably that. Sometimes I even miss periods when I am really stressed. It is both your moods causing the change, and you period can cause you to be moody.

Doctors won't admit it but every woman who has experienced a modicum of stress can tell you that it changes your cycle. I have schizoaffective disorder and i have really irregular periods that only started being off when my mood goes from one extreme to the other. It's normal.

Yes, it can. Try going on a form of hormonal birth control to regulate your periods. Of course, some mood stabilizers (mainly the ones used to treat epilespy too) can effect 'the pill', so you'll need to talk with your doctor.

stress can change your periods, hormones can change your moods.
It might help you to get regulated by going on a birth control pill cycle to keep your hormones in rythym.
