6 raisons pour lesquelles vos règles pourraient être en retard, en plus de la grossesse
Que vous ayez vos règles tous les 28 jours comme sur des roulettes ou que votre flux préfère aller et venir à sa guise, le fait que vos règles disparaissent est souvent source d'inquiétude. Votre esprit s'emballe avec des pensées de tests de grossesse et d'échographies et de regarder votre bébé obtenir son diplôme universitaire - une vie imaginaire que vous avez créée, nourrie et aidé à grandir tout cela parce que le petit peu de sang que vous espériez trouver ce matin n'a pas fait son apparition. Que la grossesse soit actuellement votre objectif ou que vous la reteniez temporairement ou définitivement, un fœtus in utero n'est certainement pas la seule cause de règles qui disparaissent. Voici 6 raisons, outre le fait d'être enceinte, pour lesquelles vos règles pourraient être en retard.
1. Stress
Si vous avez été stressée au travail ou si vous avez dû faire face à d’autres facteurs de stress, notamment traumatisants, vos règles pourraient être en retard. C’est ce qu’on appelle l’aménorrhée hypothalamique . « L’hypothalamus est le centre du cerveau et contrôle la reproduction. Il produit une hormone qui signale la production d’autres hormones nécessaires à l’ovulation », selon Shady Grove Fertility. Donc, si vous avez été stressée par quelque chose, grand ou petit, faites de votre mieux pour trouver du temps pour vous détendre. Si vous avez vécu une situation traumatisante, vous devriez appeler votre médecin et demander l’avis d’un professionnel.
2. Être malade
Les merveilles que votre corps accomplit sont toutes liées à un certain niveau. Lorsqu'un système ne fonctionne pas aussi bien qu'il le devrait, les autres sont également affectés. C'est comme un jeu de survie : quel processus corporel est le plus important en ce moment ? Si vous avez un rhume, la grippe ou un autre type de maladie, votre cycle menstruel est probablement le premier à être interrompu afin de permettre au reste de votre corps de reprendre son activité.
3. Fluctuations de poids
Dites bonjour à votre hypothalamus (le centre du cerveau qui contrôle les hormones reproductrices, comme l'œstrogène). Lorsque vous subissez des fluctuations extrêmes de votre poids, la quantité d'œstrogène libérée peut avoir un impact sur le fait que vous ayez ou non vos règles. Si vous perdez beaucoup de poids rapidement, votre corps ne produira pas suffisamment d'œstrogène. Si vous prenez trop de poids, votre corps aura trop d'œstrogène. Dans tous les cas, cela pourrait être une raison pour laquelle vos règles sont en retard.
4. Changement dans votre emploi du temps
Des changements mineurs dans votre emploi du temps n'auront pas d'impact sur votre cycle menstruel, mais des changements plus importants, comme le passage au travail de nuit ou le décalage horaire dû à un voyage à l'autre bout du monde (vous êtes une jet-setteuse, vous !), peuvent avoir un impact. La bonne nouvelle est que ce changement est temporaire. Une fois que votre corps s'est acclimaté à votre nouvel emploi du temps, vos règles devraient reprendre leur cours normal. Si ce n'est pas le cas, il vaut la peine d'appeler votre médecin.
5. Déséquilibre hormonal
Les hormones jouent bien sûr un rôle important dans votre cycle menstruel. Elles déterminent l'intensité, la durée et même la survenue de vos règles. Si vos hormones sont déréglées, vous risquez de ne pas avoir de règles. L'une des causes pourrait être le syndrome des ovaires polykystiques (SOPK) ou l'endométriose . Si vous pensez que c'est le cas, appelez votre médecin. Il pourra vous indiquer la voie à suivre pour vous aider à réguler vos symptômes.
6. Votre contraception
Oui, même si vous ne renoncez pas aux pilules de sucre, votre contraception pourrait modifier votre cycle menstruel. Que vous ayez un stérilet, que vous receviez des injections de Depo ou que vous preniez la pilule, les changements hormonaux causés par la contraception peuvent parfois éliminer ou diminuer vos règles. Bien que cela puisse parfois être un effet secondaire bienvenu, il est bon de savoir que c'est en fait la cause de règles tardives ou inexistantes.
Si vous pensez être enceinte, il est toujours judicieux de faire un test. Sinon, parlez de vos règles tardives à votre médecin. Il pourra vous fournir des informations précieuses et vous rassurer.

I saw my period on the 14 day of February till 19th day of February and had sex on 23 of February,but I haven’t seen my period this month,and am not pregnant either,so what could be the cause?
Hi From-God Edem!
Many reasons might delay your period, such as stress, hormonal imbalance, or lifestyle changes like a new schedule. Being sick and taking some medication may also influence and mess up with your menstrual cycle. Hormones regulate the menstrual cycle, and many things can affect your hormone function and balance.
If the period doesn’t return until next month, if you think you might be pregnant or generally if you are worried, I would recommend consulting a doctor. Please keep in mind that we are no medical professionals and therefore cannot make a remote diagnosis. Only a medical professional can make the necessary examinations.

Hi Aganmwonyi Vicky!
If you’re concerned about pregnancy it is best to take an at home pregnancy test or to consult a doctor. Home pregnancy tests are often quite accurate but if they show negative, and you are still suspecting you might be pregnant, please consult your doctor :) As we are not medical professionals we cannot provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.Keep in mind that many reasons might delay your period, such as stress, hormonal imbalance, or lifestyle changes like a new schedule.

Hi Helen!
Many reasons might delay your period, such as stress, hormonal imbalance, or lifestyle changes like a new schedule. Hormones regulate the menstrual cycle, and many things can affect your hormone function and balance. Being sick and/or taking medication can also affect your periods and menstrual cycle and cause delays or irregularities.
If you are not sure it could be one of these reasons, or you have no possibility of being pregnant, we recommend you to talk to your doctor just to make sure why your period could be late now! Unfortunately, we at Lunette are not medical professionals, so we cannot diagnose or safely state what could cause your period to be late.

Hi Becky,
the most likely time to become pregnant is when having unprotected sex close to ovulation. Unfortunately it is difficult to tell when exactly ovulation is happening. The shorter the menstrual cycle the earlier ovulation happens. So, if you believe you could be pregnant the easiest way to find out is with an at-home pregnancy test.

I was so worried and This article helped me a lot to clear up some confusion. I am not pregnant but my period didn’t arrive yet. I feel sick since last week and I also guess that my weight is also fallen. I faced this situation first time. I do not know what I should do now. One more thing is it has any side effects if I take medicine for menstruation ?
I started my period when I was 12+, I’ve never had a normal cycle, it’s not stable. Sometimes the range of my cycle is 30-98 days. I can stay for four month without seeing my period, there was even a time I saw my period one day in one year.Thou I’m 21 and still a virgin, I can’t understand why it is so, I later found out that there was a time I was sick that lead to blood transfusion and I have shortage of blood. I’ve been taking supplements and blood tonic to replenish my blood but it is not yielding result. So I want to ask if there is something I can do to make my cycle normal?
I finished my period on 6 I have sex 8 and I and am doing another period on 21 can I be pregnant
