6 anledningar till att din mens kan bli sen förutom att vara gravid
Oavsett om du får din mens var 28:e dag som en klocka eller har ett flöde som föredrar att komma och gå som det vill, känns det ofta som att ha en menstruation med MIA som en anledning till oro. Ditt sinne rinner fritt av tankar på graviditetstest och ultraljud och att se ditt barn ta sin examen - ett imaginärt liv som du har skapat och vårdat och hjälpt till att växa, allt eftersom den där lilla blodbiten du hoppades hitta i morse inte klarade det. utseende. Oavsett om graviditet just nu är ditt mål eller om du avvaktar tillfälligt eller för alltid, är ett foster i livmodern verkligen inte den enda orsaken till en menstruation. Här är 6 anledningar, förutom att vara gravid, till att din mens kan vara sen.
1. Stress
Om du har varit trasig på jobbet eller hanterat andra stressfaktorer, särskilt traumatiska, kan din mens vara sen. Detta kallas hypotalamisk amenorré . "Hypotalamus är hjärnans centrum och styr reproduktionen. Det producerar ett hormon som signalerar produktionen av andra hormoner som behövs för ägglossning”, enligt Shady Grove Fertility. Så om du har varit stressad över något - stort som smått - gör ditt bästa för att hitta tid för avkoppling. Om du har upplevt en traumatisk situation bör du ringa din läkare och söka en professionell åsikt.
2. Att vara sjuk
De fantastiska saker din kropp gör är alla sammanflätade på någon nivå. När ett system inte fungerar så bra som det borde påverkas de andra också. Det är som ett spel om överlevnad – vilken kroppslig process är den viktigaste just nu? Om du har en vanlig förkylning, influensa eller någon annan typ av sjukdom, är din menstruationscykel troligen den första som stängs av för att få fart på resten av din kropp igen.
3. Viktfluktuationer
Säg hej till din hypotalamus igen (centrum i hjärnan som styr reproduktiva hormoner, som östrogen). När du upplever extrema fluktuationer i din vikt kan mängden östrogen som frigörs påverka om du får mens eller inte. Om du går ner mycket i vikt snabbt kommer din kropp inte att producera tillräckligt med östrogen. För mycket viktökning och din kropp kommer att få för mycket östrogen. Oavsett vilket kan detta vara en anledning till att din mens är sen.
4. Ändra ditt schema
Mindre förändringar i ditt schema kommer inte att påverka din menstruationscykel men intensiva sådana, som att byta till nattpass eller ha jetlag från att resa över världen (du jetsetter, du!), kan det. Den goda nyheten är att det är tillfälligt. När din kropp vänjer sig till ditt nya schema, bör din mens återupptas som normalt. Om de inte gör det är det värt att ringa din läkare om.
5. Hormonell obalans
Hormoner spelar naturligtvis en stor roll i din menstruationscykel. De bestämmer tyngden, längden och till och med om din mens kommer överhuvudtaget. Om dina hormoner är ur spel kanske du inte får mens. En orsak kan vara PCOS . En annan kan vara endometrios . Om du misstänker att så är fallet, ring din läkare. De kommer att kunna sätta dig på en väg för att hjälpa till att reglera symtomen.
6. Din preventivmedel
Ja, även om du inte hoppar över sockerpillren kan din preventivmedel redigera din menstruationscykel. Oavsett om du har en spiral, får Depo-sprutor eller är på p-piller, kan de hormonella förändringarna som orsakas av preventivmedel ibland eliminera eller minska din mens. Även om detta ibland kan vara en välkommen bieffekt, är det bra att veta att det faktiskt är orsaken till en sen eller obefintlig mens.
Om du tror att du är gravid är det alltid en bra idé att ta ett test. Annars, prata med din läkare om din sena mens - de kan ge värdefull insikt och lugna ditt sinne. Om du letar efter en hållbar, stressfri period, kolla in vårt utbud av tidstypiska produkter .

Hi Aida! We are so sorry you have been ill! Unfortunately we cannot offer diagnosis for the delayed period as we are not medical professionals. However, being ill often affects the menstrual cycle and your recent illness and medications can have an affect on the period. Wishing you all the best!

Hi, so I had my period on the 4th -7th of March. I made out with my boyfriend on the 20th of March. He actually didn’t penetrate me because I’m still a virgin, but he cummed on me. The problem now is I’m was expecting my period on the 2nd of April but till date no period but I still get my normal cramp that comes before period and boobs full with nipples pain and this time around I feel like throwing up. Am I pregnant?
I had evacuation on 2nd Feb and i didn’t see my period since then i fear i am pregnant again. I had sex 20th/21st of march and i immediately took levonorgestrel pills after sex. A week ago i feel cold, feverish and felt like throwing up i went to see the doctor, told me i had PID which i took injection and pills for by his prescription. And i have treated it twice between March and Early this month. But i get this urge to vomit although not strong. I complaint and he gave me a deworming pill. Which i took. Still having the vomiting urge. I took a pregnancy test which turns negative. But am getting worried. I want to take another test.
Hi,
I was hospitalized from January 31, 2020 to February 5,2020 due to bacterial pneumonia. I used to take Dostinex and Duphaston but from February till now, April , I don’t have my period and so I stop my Duphaston Due to absence of bleeding . Dostinex I didn’t take also as I have to see my endocrinologist every 3 months but due to current situation , COVID -19 , I ran out of medicine. What must be the reason of absence of menstruation ?
Thanks
Hi komal! If you’re concerned about pregnancy we recommend taking an at-home pregnancy test. :)

Hi Antonia! Heavy flow that goes through your pad is not considered spotting. Spotting is light bleeding only. If you are concerned that this heavy bleeding is not your period you should contact a doctor as soon as possible.

I had protected sex with my boyfriend them after periods occur then next month’s also periods occur bt now it’s delays..is I m pregnant
Hi! My period is about a week late. But I’ve noticed I’ve been spotting with the occasional heavy flow (as in it leaked through my pad). Is this normal? Should I be concerned? I’ve had my regular symptoms that I do when I’m on my period (bloating, mood swings) but I haven’t been cramping or consistently bleeding.
Hi Ella! If you are experiencing light bleeding that is brownish or pinkish in color, then you are experiencing spotting. Spotting is not the same as your period, and can often happen during ovulation, which is typically in the middle of your cycle. You can read about this in our post Periods vs Spotting. :) If you are feeling concerned it is best to contact your doctor.

Hi Mutiat! We are so sorry to hear you are ill! Your menstrual cycle is likely the first to be shut down in order to get the rest of your body back up to speed, so don’t worry too much about the period being missed while you’re sick. Once you’ve nursed your body back to health your cycle is likely to return. :) If you’re feeling concerned it is a good idea to reach out to your doctor as well.

Hi. My period for January came after 35 days, February came after 21 days and now March is starting after 13days of menstrual cycle. Should I be worried
Hi Cy! If you have a common cold, the flu, or some other type of illness, your menstrual cycle is likely the first to be shut down in order to get the rest of your body back up to speed. If you are feeling concerned about the delayed period it is best to discuss this with your doctor. :)

My period is late. Last month it was from about October 30 – November 4
I don’t know if I’m sick or something, but I did try to touch myself, but no sex. I saw a little blood but it wasn’t my period. It just lasted for about 2 – 3 hours then gone. It was only a small amount.
In the month of November, my cycle didn’t come. It was supposed to come every last 3 days of ever month! Pls help me!
