Lots of things: Pregnancy is certainly a possibility; however, there are other reasons women sometimes miss periods. For example, stress, illness, rigorous exercise, extreme weight loss, thyroid problems can all cause a women to miss periods. Tell your friend to do a home pregnancy test to see if she is pregnant. Best wishes!
