Q: Virgin, Missed 2 Periods?!

Hi!

My periods are usually very very regular (as in, down to the day 28 days). But in the past couple of months they've been bouncing all over the place.

At the end of April I had a period, but then I finished exams, moved home for the summer, and didn't have another until halfway through June, so it was a few weeks late.

They were regular in June, July, and August...

but now I haven't had one since the beginning of August! I moved back to school in August, so maybe my schedule / eating habits changed a little (but not much).

I do have a boyfriend and we are physical (I know you can get pregnant without actually *having* sex) but we are both painfully aware of the dangers of physicality and we're careful.

Could my eating habits really cause my period to miss or should I take this seriously and get a pregnancy test? I haven't had any of the other symptoms (tender breasts, headaches, tiredness, bloating.) HELP!

It seems like you've been under a lot of stress. Sometimes stress can cause periods to become irregular. Give it some time, try to relax a little, and I'm sure your period will rear it's ugly head soon Very Happy

Yes. Eating habits, massive change, and stress can cause periods to go all wonky. This is a common occurance in college aged women, actually. There is so much going on in your life, it is bound to affect you somehow.

You could take a pregnancy test to put your mind at ease. At your student clinic they probably give them, as well as birth control. If not, I have no doubt there is a planned parenthood near your campus.

Good luck!
