A member asked:

Period is irregular, 6 days late 2 days early, now it is 7 days late. havent had sex but have had sexual contact. have also been on new diet losing w?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It happens sometimes: In a woman with regular periods, some causes of a late period include: excessive weight loss or weight gain, increased exercising, emotional stress, having an illness, traveling, medicines (like birth control pills), hormonal imbalances, etc… Seeing a doctor is a good idea if symptoms are persistent, recurring, or worrisome. Pregnancy is a cause of a missed period, if sexually active.
