I've been getting my period for almost ten years and I have never been good at keep track because it came on so randomly. But it hasn't come on at all and it worries me at first I thought it was a yeast infection but I don't have symptoms. But sometimes when I wipe its white milky stuff and when I looked it up online it sad that it was something that happened before your period, that wasn't the first time it happened but I didn't know it happen before my period. But I still haven't got it. Is there something I can do to bring it on? Or a way to figure out whats wrong? I can't go to my sisters they're all younger than me and my mom is mom and it would be nerve wrecking to tell her and get her all worked up before I even know for sure whats wrong or I'm not overreacting. I'm not the skinniest person but I'm not obese either. This has never happened before. Please help.

Hello Anonymous,
Can suggest you talk with your gynecologist, who may want you to schedule an appointment for an exam, including blood tests to check hormone levels.

Hey I'm 21 and I had sex with my now ex back in august of 2016. Then got my period as usual the month after and every month after. But this month (December) it is now a week late. I normally have very regular periods at most it's like 2 days but never this long. Does it have anything thing to do with how long my last period was? Last month it lasted 2 weeks when my periods are normally around 9 -10 days? I know I gained weight bc I went from a B cup to a C cup since I went back to eating college food? I'm sure I'm not pregnant but my instinct still worries if I am (when I can't be because I got my period the last few months and haven't done anything since august) I keep being told to see a doctor but I legit leave for school in less than a week and my school is across the country. So any advice on what could be wrong? help?!

Hello Eliz,
Wait and see what happens. If you have had regular menstrual cycles, have not had unprotected sex, and you miss a period for the month, consider speaking with your pediatrician.
The menstrual cycle is regulated by a precise balance of hormones. You would want to be sure there is no hormonal imbalance.

Hello Anonymous,
The changes and stress associated with beginning college are most likely the causes of the absence of your period.
Regulation of menstrual periods is controlled by a complex hormonal balance.
Likewise, the body's reaction to stress involves changes in the levels of many hormones. Because it affects hormone balance and many other processes in the body, psychological stress can also interfere with the menstrual cycle.
In fact, stress is considered to be a common cause of missed or late menstrual periods.
Anonymous, try to find ways to relax or de-stress, such engaging in a sport, listening to music, doing yoga or meditation.
