Razhie answered Saturday June 24 2006, 9:28 pm: If you are stressed your period can be delayed. There really isn't a fine science to it. Like most things everyone is unique. In some women prolonged stress might put a period off for weeks, in other women they just end up a bit late and others might be right on time but the cramps and PMS are much worse.
Generally however stress shouldn’t delay a period by more then 2 weeks. If you are normally regular and you are over two weeks late, you should start investigating other causes and talking to a doctor.
Seriously though if you are so stressed you are throwing off your cycle you really need to work on reducing your stress, and talking to a doctor can be a great start for that. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
