Sorry you feel bad: You need to have a visit with your doc. There are too many concerns (which may or may not be related) to answer in the space provide.

Schedule a visit with your primary care doc, they will be able to get the necessary details and provide you with a treatment plan or a referral to a specialist if deemed necessary.

Question 2

can stress cause a missed period?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Either mental or physical stress can affect the menstrual cycle.

Question 3

can low blood cause missed period?

Accepted Answer

Anemia: Can low blood cause missed period? I believe what you are refering is if having low hemoglobin level can cause a missed period. The body can sense that there is a low level of hemoglobin and hematocrit (blood components) and might cause a delay in your period to replenish itself. However dont rely on this and if missed period consider pregnancy or other medical condition. See your obgyn.

Question 4

could rough sex cause a missed period?

Accepted Answer

Not usually: However, missed menses for non-pregnant reasons are common post sexual assault due to the nature of the traumatic event.

Question 5

what can be some reason of a missed period?

Accepted Answer

Menstrual cycles: It is common for young women to skip a period or have irregular cycles.  It is also more likely to happen if you are very athletic, gain or lose weight, using birth control pills, or have an eating disorder.  Still, if you are sexually active, you could be pregnant.  I would track your cycles to see if it happens often and see your doctor if you notice that it becomes more irregular.

Question 6

could mono be the cause of a missed period?

Accepted Answer

Mono: severe illness could cause a missed period but also have no effect on it. When in doubt, do a home pregnancy test.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

No: Missing a period, means less blood loss which usually will cause less iron depletion. However in cases of severe malnutrition, such as seen with anorexia, a woman can stop menstruation and have low iron but it is not the cause. If your periods are less frequent and flow is not heavy, your doctor should check for other causes of low iron.

Question 8

how much stress will it take to cause a missed period?

Accepted Answer

Variable: There is no set amount of stress that could cause a missed period. Any emotional or physical stress can cause this. If you are sexually active, you should do a pregnancy test. You should also contact your doctor if you have missed periods.
