Accepted Answer

Tests are accurate: In a woman with regular periods, some causes of a late period include: excessive weight loss or weight gain, increased exercising, emotional stress, having an illness, traveling, medicines (such as hormone pills), hormonal imbalances, being near menopause, etc… Seeing a doctor is a good idea if symptoms are persistent or worrisome.

Possibly: Pregnancy is always a possibility.  Purchase a home pregnancy test.  They become positive when you're 1 week late.  If it's negative, repeat in 1 week.

Accepted Answer

R/O preg. See dr: If it is a possibility, please check a first AM urine test for pregnancy you can buy in the store to rule that out about 10-11 days after your missed period for the best yield. If it continues, best to see your physician to rule out other problems, but may be stress-related, hopefully. Irregular periods are common due to anovulatory cycles and  hormonal shifts.
