Delayed Periods. On Medication For Mild Rosacea. Is Travelling The Reason?

Hello, my periods has been delayed by around 10 days. My last period was on the 7th of Feb. I m not pregnant as I took a blood test 2 days ago, but it was negative. But I recently started going to the gym, I m also on a medication Doxycycline for mild rosacea . I also travelled alot in the month of Feb. Could these be reasons why my period has gotten delayed? I m under a bit of stress right now as I ve always had regular periods.

Hello,
Thanks for your query.

Yes, stress could be one of the causes of delayed periods.
Other causes include, hormonal imbalance, emotional disturbances, ovarian cyst , thyroid problem,excess weight gain/ loss.
I suggest you to get your blood tested for beta HCG.
Transvaginal ultrasound also helps in detecting early pregnancy.
Once pregnancy is ruled out, i suggest you to visit your Gynecologist for complete physical examination and relevant investigation.
Do not worry as all the above mentioned causes of missed periods are treatable.

Hope this helps.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
