Absolutely.: The hormonal signals that govern your periods come from your brain. So, many factors can influence your periods and their timing. Emotional stress, overwork, lack of sleep - pretty much anything that throws you "off" can altar your periods. Take a pregnancy test if you think you are at risk for pregnancy. Lgromkomd.
