Hey girl, I have had the same problem for the past eight years. My doctors tell me tha I have an hormone imbalance and this inhibits ovulation some months and ultimately affects my menstrual cycle.\n\nI was unable to get pregnant for some time until recently (my son is nine months).\n\nYou need to do tests to confirm whether or not this is so or if there are other problems. All the best!

Nothing wrong with you or your body if it only happens occasionally.  If it continues to happen though, see your doctor.\nI am assuming that you are not taking any hormonal birth control as you did not mention this.  Hormonal birth control (the pill, the patch, etc.) can really mess with your body and sometimes change the pattern of your cycles especially when you are first starting them or just after you've discontinued using them.\n\nI myself have just stopped taking hormonal birth control and I had 3 menstrual cycles in 5 weeks.  Doctor says it is nothing to worry about, my body is just getting back to "normal".\n\nBut if you ever suspect that you are bleeding due to a pregnancy or possible miscarriage, you should take a pregnancy test.

Using hormonal birth control, changing your diet, stress, losing large amounts of weight...there are a lot of things that can affect your cycle.  Missing one is probably not a big concern unless you're pregnant.  I would personally take a test just to be sure.  But if you miss another one, you should see a gynocologist to find out what's going on.

Your local health department will give you a pregnancy test and check you out for little or no fee depending on your income. You need to be checked, pregnancy is not always the cause of missed periods.

You're still in your teens, and women's cycles don't become truly regular until the mid-twenties. Your body may have just randomly skipped a cycle. Rapid weight loss or malnutrition can also cause a missed period. As you said, stress can do it too. Also, some illnesses (ovarian cysts or uterine cancer, for example) can do the same. That's a very unlikely possibility though.\n\nIf you're sexually active, take a home pregnancy test once your period is a few days late. If it's negative or you're not sexually active, wait another month to see if our period returns. If it doesn't, head to the gynecologist for a check-up.

Are you stressed out? \nLoose or gain any weight rapidly?\nare you eatting more or less fatty foods? \nYour cycle could be changing??\n\nThis happened to a friend of mine. Don't be alarmed this time if you miss it. However if it doesn't come next time. Talk with your doctor. Don't freak your self out, it will delay it even more. For peace of mind take a preg test if you haven't already. If it doesn't come and you are in no pain for the first cycle missed you are fine.

Hormones vary with periods of stress in life. Infections also may cause a lack of a period. An anovulatory period is most likely what your having, they are vary common when your young. It just a time in life when your periods will be off. If your not active, it should correct by the next month. Doctors don't usually worry until three consequtively missed periods.\n\nOther than that, alot also has to do with your weight, and familial history. But when your young, your hormones are crazy. So sometimes two cycles in a month, sometimes none.

your body isn't used to the hormones yet so its just getting used to it, it may take a little while. when i first wen on The Patch, i got my period for an entire month straight (which was horrible then i missed it the next month thankfully, and got it back regularly the third month. be thankful its not THAT screwed up, your body just needs to get used to it.

it will take a year before you might see a pattern. Depending on which IUD you have.\n\nPara Guard(non hormonal and 10 yrs) you might see an increase in flow and cramps and you might spot inbetween or skip a period\n\nMirena (hormones and 5 yrs) will decrease your flow and cramps and you might have an absence in period after a year!!! but also normal to skip periods with this one

Unless for some reason it's normal for you to miss your period, It is never normal to miss your period. Don't freak out though unless it's been at least a week since when you should have started. Even then, it could be other things. If all else fails, get a pregnancy test or see a gynocologist.

Go back to the gyno.  Obviously something is wrong.  Have you taken a pregnancy test?  If your not pregnant, you need to get on birth control or progesterone to stimulate your period.  It isn't good to go so long without one.

actually i just had that happen recently and sometimes it can be caused by your hormones changing. also if you are wanting to have a baby, your body can make you think that you are pregnant. another thing is, sometimes pregnancy test don't always show up when you want them to. a friend of mind didn't have a period for 4 months, and took pregnancy tests after pregnancy test, and then finally it poped up positive. so maybe you need to either wait it out, or go to a obygn!

okay hun dont be scared, It sounds to me like you was pretty safe so listen to this... I was the same way the first time i had sex I missed my period an i knew i was very safe an I kept goin to the clinic an taking preg' test.. The dr told me that the number 1 reason for miss'n a period is stress... He told to try to relax an not worry about and i finally got my period 3 days later...  An over the years i have learn that it is very true stress does cause you to miss your periods.. So just try to relax for a few days an im sure it will come.. If your having cramps you'll prob' get it very soon   ;) Best of luck!!!

You should really just see your physician; as a missed period can mean more than pregnancy.

If you miss a period, you should definitely take a pregnancy test as you may well be pregnant. Spotting is also quite common in pregnancy but may also occur if ou have just started taking birth control pills.\n\nBest wishes to you.

Go get a pregnancy test and find out?\n\nHave you put any weight on?\n\nI had a friend who didn't have a period for 5 months because she didn't eat enough.

I didn't start my period until I was 15. I only had it about 3-4 days and then I didn't have another period for about 5 or 6 months. My mom took me to the doctor and they said everything was normal. After having a few cycles they became regular. If you are really concerned, take her to the doctor.
