Dr. Sara Holzbauer de Castellanos D.O.'s Expert Contributions
My periods are delayed by 45 days and my pregnancy test was negative. What could be the cause of my delayed periods?
Good question! Many different factors affect your hormones, which can affect your cycle frequency. These factor range greatly from changes your age (though at your age this is not likely), to changes in weight, significant increases in your physical activity, or underlying medical conditions (like thyroid dysfunction or PCOS, to name a couple of common causes). I strongly recommend seeing a gynecologist (women's health care specialist) to evaluate your individual situation and health, as in some situations prolonged absense of your menses can lead to the endometrium (the lining of your uterus that sloughs off when you have your period) growing abnormally and in some cases even progressing to cancer. Good Luck and Best of Health! ~Dr. C READ MORE
