What reasons has your, usually regular, period been really late? Other than pregnancy.

r/

My periods have always been regular. My cycle is around 31 days.

I had a baby 9 months ago – once my periods came back they were back to being regular again – like clockwork.

I’m 3+ weeks late for my period. There’s zero chance of pregnancy because I haven’t had sex since before baby was born. 😆

I am a bit paranoid though, could it be a sign of early menopause? I’m 31.

    Did you have a fever?

    It could simply be stress, especially if you’re someone who, like me, doesn’t eat when stressed out.

    Did you recently go back to work, does your baby sleep not through the night, has there been some extra family drama lately, those are all stressors that could be a contributor.

    Stress. Illness near my ovulatory window. Disrupted sleep.

    grief, shock, stress, heavy workout regimen… perimenopause is rare in your early 30s, but if you’re concerned, your doctor can easily run a panel to look for changes in your hormones.

    Being in the severely underweight category did it for a while 🙁 Are you eating well ?
