Why my period delay for past 2 months?

Hi Divya,
Thanks for reaching out. A delayed period for two months can feel stressful, but it’s not always a cause for worry. Let’s help you understand what might be going on and what you can do next.

Common Reasons for Missed or Delayed Periods

1. Pregnancy

   • The first thing to rule out is pregnancy. Even if you’ve had partial or no symptoms, it’s still important to take a home pregnancy test or consult a gynaecologist.

2. Stress or Anxiety

   • Physical or emotional stress can affect the hypothalamus, a part of the brain that regulates your menstrual cycle.

3. PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome)

   • A hormonal imbalance where your ovaries may not release eggs regularly. Other signs: acne, weight gain, excess facial hair.

4. Thyroid Issues

   • Both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism can disturb your periods.

5. Weight Changes

   • Sudden weight gain or loss, or being underweight/overweight can affect ovulation.

6. Lifestyle Factors

   • Excessive exercise, poor diet, irregular sleep, or change in daily routine.

7. Menopause or Premature Ovarian Insufficiency

   • While menopause typically starts in late 40s–50s, some women experience early menopause before 40.

What You Can Do Next

• Book a consultation with a gynaecologist to:

  • Do a physical and pelvic exam

  • Get blood tests (hormones, thyroid, PCOS panel)

  • If needed, get an ultrasound scan to check for ovarian cysts or uterine issues

• Track your symptoms:

  • Are there any changes in weight, hair growth, acne, mood, or sleep?

  • Any abdominal pain, bloating, or breast tenderness?
