Trauma + Period
I recently just went through some second-degree burn trauma on Sunday. I was supposed to get my period on Monday. It is now Wednesday evening and I still have not gotten my period. I am guessing that all the stress from my injury has delayed it but I am showing no signs of getting it. I've never had sex so I'm not worried about a pregnancy but it just seems odd that its been delayed this long already. Any ideas?

ok well it probably is stress. its normal and common for periods to get delayed. dont worry about it, its nothing to freak out about. =]

well, when you're under serious stress, you can just miss your period alltogether. i recently missed my period simply because i was stressing over finals (i know, that sounds kinda stupid). and then i had it again two cycle periods after my last period - it was as if i'd never missed it. so i think you need to wait until the time when you should be having your period again, then see if it comes. it won't be surprising if you miss it even then.

don't worry, when i was in my major carwreck, mine was late because of the trauma, your body is just worn out for the shock of the burn, so don't worry. if it doesn't come in a week then go to the doctor, but i don't think you will have to it should come on it's own.

Doctors aren't always accurate. I wouldn't be concerned or anything butthen again, I'm a guy I've never had a period so i dunno but I'd waity for the week to end and see what happens =/

Injury/Trauma and/or Infection can cause your period to be delayed. If you are not at risk for pregnancy, then you can miss up to three cycles before most Dr's would be concerned. The absence of menstruation is called amenorrhea if you would like to do an internet search on the topic.

Yes your period can get delayed for awhile because you are under alot of stress and thinking about getting your period too. Try to relax and not think about getting your period. Sometimes you may skip a month or so of your period. It should come soon. ♥
