If you re-read my reply to your first post, you will remember that I said here was no risk of becoming pregnant.
I really think all these symptoms are premenstrual. You must stop angsting over this because stress will only cause changes in your already irregular menstrual cycle.
Whenever the body is under excessive/constant stress, it will secrete stress hormones – cortisol and adrenaline. The adrenaline hormone will give you more energy, while the cortisol will increase brain function and stop or slow down the non-essential functions of the body. Some of these functions include the digestive process and cellular growth. Another factor would be to suppress the reproductive system.
Now, if your body is producing too much cortisol this activity will be identified by the areas of your brain which monitors the reproductive functions
Cortisol can send signals for the brain to halt or stop the release of reproductive hormones progesterone and estrogen. These hormones are needed to stimulate your menstrual cycle. Your period cannot occur without them.
Stress can have many effects which range from early bleeding before period to a reduction in blood flow.
