Stress around the time of ovulation (roughly 10-14 days before your expected period) can cause a delay in ovulation, and consequently a delay in menstruation. If you are not charting your basal body temperature and do not know if or when you ovulated, you should take a pregnancy test to rule out a possible pregnancy.

One of the first signs of pregnancy is a late period. But missed periods do not necessarily mean that you are pregnant. If you're sexually active and have missed a period, then it is worthwhile to take a pregnancy test. You may still want to take a pregnancy test even if you have been using contraception. Since Birth Control can fail, taking a pregnancy test will allow you to rule out one of the possible causes of missed periods. Your local pregnancy center can provide a test for free.

If you have a late period and a negative pregnancy test, then consider whether or not you've recently been sick, gained or lost a significant amount of weight, have been under excessive stress or have taken any new medications. All of these things can affect your menstrual cycle and cause you to have irregular periods. Additionally, certain types of birth control, including the birth control pill, Depo-Provera and Norplant, can cause you to have menstrual cycles disturbances.

You can get the drug norethisterone from your doctor, this is a progesterone pill so prevents the progesterone drop that would normally trigger menstruation. Take from around three days before your period and continue to take until you want your period to start.

There are several things that can cause a delay in a women's menstrual cycle such as stress and illness. Also gaining a lot of weight or losing a lot of weight can affect a period.
