I'm 51, so I've had a period for a bit, and I know when I have had serious issues with work or children or husband, bills, you name it, there have been times I've completely stopped for as much as 4 months, still had cramps and swelling just no period. any time you're worried is a good time to see your Dr. but hopefully it's worry without cause.

whoa! you better be off to the drugstore for a test miss thang

It has a Major impact!! Its is also totally normal. It screws mine up as well! Try something relaxing such as hot baths, yoga, your hubby.

Stress can play a part in delaying a period, however, I would assume it wouldn't be 3 weeks late because of it. Times when I am really stressed, mine is usually no more than a few days late. If I were you, I'd take a pregnancy test; because you're having unprotected sex, you're probably pregnant.

can you say preggers??


it's called a condom. you should try it.

It could be stress. It could be the unprotected sex. Condoms are really cheap you guys should use them.
Why? 1) he will last longer, 2) will be less messy for both of you 3)you will not have to worry about being pregnant or STD's.
Even better, you can get birth control pills and take them PLUS use condoms. Then you won't have to worry about missed periods. Trust me, less worrying=better sex!

NEVER HAVE UNPROTECTED SEX. DONT TRUST ANYONE.
but yea stress can have a big impact on your period.
and the more u strees about not getting your period the least likely is it to come.


but if u are one of those people who are never late u may want to take a test.

hey preggers...
USE A CONDOM OR TAKE A PILL!
