Possible causes...: Pregnancy is the most common cause of a missed period. If not pregnant, other causes of a late or missed period include: excessive weight loss or weight gain, increased exercising, emotional stress, having an illness, traveling, medicines (especially birth control pills), hormonal disorders, etc… a visit to one’s ob-gyn doctor is a good idea if symptoms are persistent, recurring, or worrisome.

Irregular Menses: Irregular menses can have a lot of different reasons. Commonly women have an ovarian cyst which can cause your symptoms however there are other conditions that can also be the cause. The best thing is to get an evaluation of this with your doctor.
