Where's My Period?

I haven't had my period for a while, like more than month going on two. Am I missing a period because I'm pregnant? I'm not sexually active though! Are there other reasons to miss a period or for it to be late? Two months is skipping a period, right?

Two months without getting your period is considered skipping it, but you shouldn’t worry too much. Since you aren’t sexually active, you can’t be pregnant. There are other reasons girls miss their periods, one of which will probably explain why this happened!

First of all, since your period is still irregular, it’s completely possible that this is just nature being weird. Even though two months without a period can be considered skipping it, some girls have a few periods and then go four or five months before it comes again! If it’s just your period being irregular, there’s no cause and nothing you can do.

You could also unintentionally cause this. If you’ve slimmed down a lot recently, that may affect your period. As long as you’re healthy, though, that probably isn’t the reason. The last probably excuse is stress. If you’ve been under a lot (whether it’s a fight with a friend, exams coming up, or something that’s going on with your family) it can make you miss a period.

The bottom line? Make sure you’re eating healthily, and if you’re stressin’ come up with a way to relieve it, like yoga or journaling. Don’t forget to give your doc a heads up at your next check up, too.

One time i got mine for 5 days then it stopped and then i got it again 2 days later for 3 days and my mom FREAKED and asked my doc. he said i could do birth control to regulate it and i was like no cuz that was the first time it did that. Normally it would only be a few days off. Weird.

Yeah, I had this big test a day before school ended, and then I got out of school and was like "Where's my period?" because it was my time of month, and then I started stressing about my grades that were to be sent in the mail, and now I was extremely stressed about my period again...and then I was stressing about a "sickness", when it turned out that I simply hadn't gotten enough sleep the night before... so I think I'm gonna get my period late,like at the end of the month, because of all that stress. Would that be normal? I started it last year, and it's still pretty irregular -- it comes when it wants to! So, would that be about right?
