A member asked:

My period is 18 days late and i usually have a regular cycle. i am also getting asthma symptoms that i haven't had in years. could the two be related?

Not related: Asthma flare ups do not typically have an impact on menstrual cycles unless it was triggered by an infection, or if you are using oral steroids to control it. A more common cause of a late period would be pregnancy.
