8 Reasons Why You Missed Your Periods by giffty(f): 10:14pm On Jan 25, 2015
A missed period can be a heart wrenching
experience for any woman, off course unless she
is trying to get pregnant. Any woman can admit
that the first thing she thinks of when her periods
delay is that she might be pregnant which is
usually far from the truth in various cases.
Below are the most common reasons that you
missed your period:



Stress- when you are stressed out, your
body does not operate normally. The
amount of hormones responsible for a
menstruation period (Gonadotrophin)
decreases in production. Seeing a doctor or
a well trained midwife can help you find
ways of relaxing yourself to get your body
back on track.


Wrong calculation- while most doctors say
that the average menstrual cycle lasts
28days, the truth is, our bodies are different
and therefore the menstrual cycle varies
from one woman to another.


Pregnancy- chances are you might be
pregnant. A simple pregnancy test can
easily help determine whether you missed
your period because you are pregnant.


Underweight- as impossible as it may
sound, the amount of fat in your body
determines how regular your periods are
going to be. Therefore, gaining weight might
just lead help your periods return to their
normal sequence of occurrence.


Climate change and change in schedules -
this can really affect your body clock.
Illness- sudden short or long term illnesses
can cause your periods to be delayed. As
soon as the illness is gone, your menstrual
cycle is bound to go back to its normal
sequence.


Change in medication - if you have changed
your medication and may be suspecting
that it may be the cause of your missed
period, you might want to consult a doctor
for a clearer elaboration.


Premature menopause - if a woman stops
having her periods before 40 years of age, it
is referred to as premature menopaus
