I'm late on my period

im late on my period? 5 days

Pregnant? Or have you just started your period? (about 1-5 months ago)

Periods at first WON'T be regular, and you'll notice they'll be irregular for sometimes up to a year. Don't worry. If it doesn't stop being irregular after a few years though get checked out !

How old are you and how long ago did you start your periods?
I've been having periods for over 3 years and mine are still unregular. At times their not, so when they do come alittle late it scares me alittle.
Try not to worry about it too much.

Has your diet changed? Are you thin/petite? I'm very petite so my Dr. says that it's normal for me to skip my period and it's totally ok. I also notice that when I eat A LOT, I start my period on time but when I eat regularly, I skip a few days to even a month. There are many reasons why you can be late on your period so take a pregnancy test if you're really worried.

*It's normal for you to skip because your body is constantly changing.

are you on the pill? if you are have you missed any? and have you had sex in the past month or so?

ask yourself these questions.

if youve just started getting your period then I wouldnt freak out. at all. I didnt have my period for months at a time when I was just starting.

if youve had sex, I would suggest going and getting a pregnancy test just to be sure.

oh, and stress can tie into missing a period. if youve been under a lot of stress then your body couldve gotten off track. it happens all the time.

if youre on the pill and youve missed a couple then it puts your body on a weird schedule. if any. its confused because its missed a hormone dosage or two.
