Can lower back pain cause late period?

See your doc: Pain, by itself, will not cause a period to be late. Best to have other causes for a late period work up.

No back pain won't: delay period. Reasons for missed /late periods: low body weight, obesity, marked weight gain or loss, over-exercise such as in endurance athletes, breast-feeding, stress, illness, eating disorders (bulimia or anorexia), travel, hormone irregularities, drug use, medications (i.e., birth control) or med problem (polycystic ovary syndrome or Asherman’s syndrome. #1 reason is pregnancy.
