Is Stress The Reason For Missing Periods?

Hi Doc,

I am 28 and i have never missed my periods so far. But recently due to high stress (hoping that its the reason so far) , i missed my periods. Usually my cycle is 28 days cycle and its very prompt. Please suggest if I have to go for any consulting. I am not sexually active.

Thanks

WELCOME TO HCM,
Missed periods are common in endurance athletes.
Emotional stress, Illness, Travel, Excessive weight loss or gain may cause delayed periods.
hormonal imbalance also cause missed periods.
destressing by yoga and exercises will help you regulate your cycle.
if you have prolonged ammenorrhoea then you should consult your gynaecologist to rule the cause .
