do not panic. there are a number of reasons that could explain a late period. sometimes your menstrual cycle can get a little nifty and change it’s times and dates. if you are feeling like you normally do when you have your period then you are most likely to start it properly any time soon. sometimes you may get the same side effects of your usual period and a little spotting up to a whole week before you actually begin. however this is no reason for you to worry it’s nothing unusual and it does not mean that there is something wrong with you. i understand you say that you are 100% positive and certain that you can not be pregnant however i still must include as much as i can to help you and provide you with the necessary information. so if you have had sexual intercourse since your last period whether it was protected or not then i recommend that if you still have not started your period a week after it is supposed to be due then to take a pregnancy test just to be on the safe side. however it is not only pregnancy that can prevent you from receiving your period. there are other possible ways and i will list them here for you. stress: you may realise that you are at a moment in life where you are becoming overly stressed. emotional stress can be a possible reason for your period to act up if this is the case then once you’re stress levels sink back down then you will most likely find that your period will resume back to normal. medication: are you taking any new or different medication at the moment? sometimes certain medications can prevent your period. especially contraceptives and some chemotherapy drugs. hormonal imbalance: you could have an hormonal imbalance such as polycystic ovarian syndrome which is the most common form of hormonal imbalance. well-balanced diet: are you eating properly and healthily? sometimes women who become malnourished or under weight stop receiving their periods. exercise: have you recently started taking up exercise or anything active? you may be overdoing it sometimes vigorous exercise can also be another reason for your period not coming or being late. if you do not believe that any of these reasons can explain your late/missed period then i strongly advise you to arrange an appointment with your gp as only he/she will be able to give you a definite answer. until then please do not worry yourself just wear protection incase you do begin and just carry on as normal.
