Yes, stress and depression could definitely cause irregular periods. I was under a lot of stress that last few months and I only had one and it only lasted a day and a half. I went to the doctor and they said it was from stress... so yeah, depression can cause it.=)

Definitely, depression can affect everything in the body. If it continues the same next mth, contact your gynecologist and let then know what's going on.

It is possible (and I think more likely) that there may be a common cause behind both of them... Hormonal imbalances can cause depression and irregular period... You should go see a doctor, make sure there isnt a medical condition that is causing the depression...
