Late Period No Sex Posted: 04-23-06 17:38pm
Hi, there are many many reasons why
periods can be irregular. You may be
stressed, may have been sick recently,
gained or lost weight, had an accident or
just plain old "they didn't come".
Not everyone is like clockwork all the
time. I wouldn't worry. However, when
you restart if there's lots of pain with
your periods and very heavy bleeding, and
it's with every period go to your gp and
talk about it.
Hope this helps to give your some peace of
mind.

I agree. There are many different
reasons. If your not sexually active than
its really nothing to worry about.

Ok things to take into consideration.
Age? If you are under 19 or over 45 it is
common for periods to simply not show up
occassionally.
Weight? If you have recently lost or
gained a lot of weight this can have an
effect on your periods.
Exercise? If you follow a very tough
exercise regime your periods can stop for
a while - many female athletes find this
occuring.
Stress? This can cause periods to
disappear for a while.
Illness? Meds? How long before your last
known period since you were sexually
active?
Other things like not ovulatating can also
affect your periods, this can have natural
causes or can be related to sexually
transmitted diseases like chlamydia which
often has no symptoms or pelvic
inflammatory disease, that has gone
untreated.

Well, I recently have lost about 15-20
pounds, and i'm 15 yrs old. I guess that
is the reason....Do you klnow how long it
will be before it comes back?
