If you have been sexually active and recently missed out on a period, it is time for you to relax as each woman is unique when it comes to her menstrual cycle and you could be a possible victim of missed or irregular periods. Moreover, hormones in most women take good time before reaching a balance.
Let us read about some factors that can contribute to delayed or irregular periods.
Eating disorders: A woman can experience monthly cycle disturbances because of specific eating disorders such as anorexia (starving oneself) and Orthorexic Nervosa (obsessed with eating right and taking a healthy diet to extremes).
Weight loss or gain: Low body weight as well as obesity can take a toll on your menstrual cycle.
Stress: If you live on sedantary lifestyle or stressful life or too much into birth control methods or hormone problems, you can experience menstrual problems.
Breastfeeding: Medical studies in the past have suggested that women continuing with breastfeeding for over a year after baby birth tend to face irregular periods.
Strenuous exercises: Missed or irregular periods could come your way if you are into a strenuous and gruelling exercise regime.
Health problems: If you are getting close to menopause or suffer from premature ovarian failure or recently underwent surgery, chemotherapy or radiation therapy to the abdomen or pelvis, there is a high incidence of missed periods.
One solution: The best solution to get rid of all hassles is to perform a pregnancy test or visit a medical expert.
