A member asked:

What could be the cause of late periods? i last saw my periods on march 15 and its almost month end of april now still nothing, i have also noticed watery white discharge what could be the problem? should i be worried?

A "late period" is most commonly caused by pregnancy. If pregnancy is possible, obtain a serum HCG test to be certain. Stress (emotional, job or school related) can delay ovulation, causing a delay in menstruation. If the test is negative, see your gyn provider, as multiple ovarian cysts w/o ovulation can represent polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).
