I havent got my period since january and i havent had sex since december. is my anxiety making me late
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can: The pituitary gland, which is the "center of the menstrual cycle universe" , is attached on a tiny stalk to the brain itself. Input from the higher centers of the brain( like anxiety) can strongly influence the pituitary gland to "temporarily" stop its' intended operations by pushing the "pause" button on the menstrual cycle.
