medication and late periods.?

Question

I just got my wisdom teeth taken out and was on a lot of medication. Could all the medication make my period late or could I be pregnant. My period should have come either yesterday or today and it hasnt.

Answer 1

Stress, illness, medication & weight loss can affect your hormones, thus changing your cycle.

Answer 2

It's normal for a woman's period to naturally fluctuate between 1-7 days, if not on birth control pills to regulate it. Stress may cause it to be even later, and having your wisdom teeth removed can certainly count as stress. Give it another week dear, you're only one day late.
