Thread: Periods becoming sporadic

Ok, I am a 28/f with unusual menstrual cycles. I was always pretty regular, but the past 6 months or so, my periods have been becoming increasingly later and later. I had one the end of May, didn't get one for June, started July 4th, and it is now the 18th of Aug and I still haven't got one for this month yet. I have been through countless pregnancy tests, and I know I'm not pregnant, (even though I wouldn't mind if I was), but anyway, I'm wondering, can stress really mess up your cycle that much? I can honestly say I have been under so much stress lately that I want to rip my hair out. New job, out of control son, just got a new dog and he is still NOT potty trained. I just feel like everything is piling up on me. Back to the subject, do you think that could be the cause of my messed up cycle? I haven't been to the gyno since my miscarriage about 3 yrs ago b/c I don't have insurance yet, (I will come November). But I haven't had any weird discharge or pain or anything like that. I am trying not to worry, but the later I am, the more I worry, hence the more stress I am putting myself under. Comments are very much appreciated.

Thanks!!
