Question 1

i'm 49, have missed this months period,  i  experienced jet lag after last period & fatigue, depression, bloated, disturbed sleep. preg test = negativ?

Accepted Answer

Maybe early signs: Menopause often starts slowly with a missed period, then normal, then a few missed..... It can also be less blood and shorter and different side effects. See your OBGYN or Dr to clarify, but this is possible at 49. Still do use birth control if you do not want a baby! Best!

Question 2

is a missed period normal?

Accepted Answer

Depends: It is normal to miss a period if you are just beginning your cycles (first 3-5 years), if you are entering menopause, if you are manipulating your cycles with hormones (eg birth control pills) or if you are pregnant.  On the other hand it can be a sign of trouble.  If you can't explain your lack of periods, it is best to make a trip to your physician.

Question 3

missed period negative test?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor.: I assume from your question you had a negative pregnancy test. The menstrual cycle can vary by a few days from month to month, so if your period is only a few days late, i wouldn't worry. However, if your period is delayed by more than just a couple days you should repeat the test and call or visit your doctor.

Question 4

what does a missed period mean?

Accepted Answer

#1 -R/O pregnancy: Could be hormonal or in your mid 40s could be perimenopausal where u start to skip periods which is normal at that age.

Question 5

how many days is considered a missed period?

Accepted Answer

Amenorrhea: Primary amenorrhea is defined as the absence of menses by 13 years of age when there is no visible secondary sexual characteristic development or by 15 years of age in the presence of normal secondary sexual characteristics. A woman who has previously menstruated can develop secondary amenorrhea, which is defined as absence of menstruation for three normal menstrual cycles or 6 months.

Question 6

which other reasons are there for getting a missed period?

Accepted Answer

Many reasons!: Besides pregnancy, common causes for isolated missed periods in women with previously normal periods include: include perimenopause, premature ovarian failure (if under 40), polycystic ovary syndrome, endocrine abnormalities, medication side effects, and prolonged high stress levels. If you miss more than a few, it's best to visit a gyn to figure out what's going on.

Question 8

can stress cause a missed period?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 9

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 10

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.
