How long can stress delay your period?
so i had 4 finals for college and stress was a really big factor, can that delay my period? i'm already 4 days late. also during finals weeks i had lack of sleep, probably about 4 hours each night and i was sick with the flu.
can all of these severely delay my period? yes, i am sexually active so there is a possibility that i may be pregnant. no i am currently not taking any birth control but we always use a condom and he never ejaculates inside me, he does pull out with the condom on.... but i just want to know the possibilities.
Update:i took 3 pregnancy tests during the past two mornings, but they all came out to be negative

First take a test to make sure. Second, stress delayed my period once by a week and a half. Im stresse a lot but had never been late like that. I sworn I was pregnant because of how late I was but all the tests were negative. Well the reason why I was so stresses was because I was planning my wedding. And on out wedding night, RIGHT after we had sex, bam! I got my period....I was like....yep!! Was totally stress!! Because honestly I didn't believe stress could cause it to be late since I was always stressed and it never happened before! Guess I just wasn't stressed enough! If I had finals, yeah I bet my period would be late too!
You can skip your period all together from stress. I've been 8 days late before and not been pregnant. Wait a week and if you still haven't gotten it, take another test. Or you could go to the doctor for a blood test. But if you use condoms AND he pulls out with the condom on, I think your chances of being pregnant are pretty small. Good luck!
