Period late

Any opinions would be great! I am 11 days late for my period,and have took preg test and all have come back negative. Should I be concerned and go to the dr? My periods are always normal. Always on the 1st and lasting till the 7th.

How old are you? Could you be perimenopausal? I had the same recently, usually very regular but had one month where I was two weeks late then had 2 periods in 4 weeks.

Seems to have gone back to normal now but I assumed it's perimenopause due to my age (46).

Im only 21. So i dont think it would be perimenopause.

If you miss a period and the test still says negative then definitely get it checked out.

Are you stressed? On any contraception? Lost weight? Gained weight? All these things can mess up a cycle.

FWIW I had this and my GP said sometimes they go AWOL for no reason. If you miss 3 months come back

Its is now 13 days late. I went to the dr and all they did was a urine test like at home. The dr said sometimes bacterial infections or ect can cause it to happen,but all my test come back fine. I couldnt get her to do blood work. She just said if I dont get it by next week then take another test. It could just be too early. Just wish i could figure it out already. I'm not stressed nor on any birth control. I have been 140 pounds for a year straight now.

It's probably just your cycles gone AWOL. I had the same issue. I missed one period completely but then it came on time on the next month with a vengeance. I asked my GP about it while I was there for something unrelated and she said sometimes they go AWOL for all kinds of reasons. Normally just a hormonal thing. If you miss 3 in a row then they investigate it

It’s very normal to have the odd anovulatory cycle. I wouldn’t worry about it.

NHS website says see GP when you have missed two periods in a row, so 8+ weeks without one. Some GPs won't even start with hormone tests etc until 6 months of missed periods. Very rarely a cause for concern, they just disappear occasionally. Certainly don't panic m
