Girl Talk..

jmestyle · May 2010

Anyone else having girly problems with their wedding right around the corner.
I missed my period but I'm not pregnant. I have all the signs of my period but its nowhere to be found!
I also have not gained or lost more than 3lbs in the past 10 years but for some reason I have gained like 5lbs in a month.
So weird and out of character for my body.

I am totally stressed w/ my wedding and everything related to it. I also own and run a business on my own thats stressfull all the time.

Please tell me I have nothing to worry about!
My period is super late and I have PMS symptoms constantly. I'm so moody and crampy

Relax!! Take some time out for yourself or you are going to burn out before the big day! Getting a massage or mani/pedi always work for me.

I hate when stress messes everything up. Try to relax and it will show.

Ugh stress. Our wedding has come and gone, but I just got my monthly friend for the first time since the wedding, and she was a few days late. Majorly stressful! It's a stress thing!!

Go pamper yourself a little and enjoy, because it goes too fast

Stress always messes with my cycle... a few years ago I kept getting my period every 2 weeks! I tend to get it early and often when I'm under super-duper stress.

Ditto the other girls.. go pamper yourself. Definitely get a massage and get a mani/pedi and then relax with a glass of a wine or something. Take a day to just unwind.. maybe also try a nice hot bubble bath.

SillyLGoose · May 2010

How late is super late? With PMS symptoms all the time it's probably right around the corner. I wouldn't worry about it.

tashala107 · May 2010

Try to relax! When I'm stressed my cycle goes crazy too... I freak out then it doesn't come for even longer! I agree with the other ladies... go pamper yourself

agreed, it's totally stress!!!! mine was super late right before my wedding, too and it was definitely the stress (3 weeks before my wedding, i had my caterer cancel, the bar exam, last minute planning details, my bachelorette, and DH f'ing things up too! PLUS i was *freaking* out that i was preggers!!) it's amazing what stress can do to you!

Good girl!!

I have been like this for the last three months. My period has been almost non-existent and I have not been able to lose any weight even though I am working out like crazy. This is my first normal period in three months. Unlike all those lucky people that lose weight with stress, I will gain ugh!

Another thing that "may" affect is maybe have your thyroids checked? I've had irregular cycles all of last year and had attribute that to stress as it was a pretty stressful year. Turns out I had low levels of thyroid hormones (probably all burnt out by the stress LOL) and am on medication (I used to skip once every other month but after on medication I have it 2 months in a row. I just recently skipped another month again but this time it is stress I believe lol).

I had thought thyroid problems comes with old age and I'm not even 30 yet but it can happen to anyone.

If you don't normally skip periods I would think it is just stress but if it has happened before it wouldn't hurt to get a blood test.

Good luck and don't stress too much
