It's been 34 days since my last period?

[megankxthleen]

I'm 18, not sexually active, and my periods are always 18-20 days apart. I haven't had any health problems or out of the ordinary symptoms, but I just checked the calendar and it says it's been 34 days. I did change my diet two weeks ago after losing a significant amount of weight over the past year, since I was eating completely clean, and only fruits and veggies to now eating some pasta and including carbs and lots of protein. I doubt that it would have this much of an impact on my period though. I'm just a little worried and am not sure what's going on. Does anyone have any ideas?

I've been extremely irritable the past few days, so I'm not sure if it's right around the corner or just because I haven't gotten it and my hormones are acting up or what. I figured I would ask though, just in case because I don't want to go to the doctor and have to pay a bill if it's not a serious issue or will be here tomorrow.

Irregular periods happen to 75% of women. Losing a lot of weight CAN be a cause. Did you have unprotected sex?
Take a first EPT urine test 2 weeks after unprotected sex. Whatever it says, take a second test for confirmation a week later.
If you can't wait that long, ask a doctor a blood test.

Many 'symptoms' you hear from others or read on the internet can also be caused by stress. Late periods included.
(PS: The pull out method is the least safe method.)

It could be stress. I think that might be a definite. I'm not sexually active, so it isn't anything associated with that. Thank you though and I appreciate all the information.

I have a female friend who had some missed periods too awhile back. It really worried her. Hers were due to a lot of stress from her schooling. I can't say if that's your case or not, but sometimes it can be a small glitch in your system due to SOMEthing, just not maybe a detrimental one.

[megankxthleen]

I think it's definitely stress-related, now that I think about it. Thank you though, that put me a little more at ease.

Yeah, once you start de-stressing your body will eventually start saying, "Order in the court!"

See a doctor to be sure that there is not something wrong.
