A member asked:
Can stress/exercise cause your period to come up to 5 days late?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, it can: Physical or emotional stress can have an impact on a woman's menstrual cycle. This can be just a single incident, where the menses come earlier or later, or the menstrual cycle can be completely erratic.
