Question 1

i've had two missed periods since my laparoscopy.  i took a pregnancy test it was negative.  is there something wrong here?

Accepted Answer

Hormonal imbalance: Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time. You may consider implanted contraceptive or an IUD.

Question 2

i've have been eating a lot past few days.  i gain 6kg. i am 4'11 and ony 18 y/o. is it overweight that may cause of late/missed period? please help.

Accepted Answer

Changes in weight: A change in your weight is not normally a cause of a missed period.  When was your last period?  If it was less than 30 days, no reason for alarm.  Have you been hungry recently?  Gaining 6 kg is unusual.  If you changed your diet and exercise a lot, it is possible to change this much.

Even pregnancy would not cause you to gain 6 kg in a few days.

Question 3

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 4

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 5

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 6

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 7

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

what are side effects of a missed period?

Accepted Answer

Missed period: Missing a period does not have a side effect. What is causing the missed period can have an actual effect on you. Pregnancy, thryoid disease, hormonal imbalances, being overweight, life stressors etc. See your physician to rule out these medical conditions.

Question 9

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.
