Hi all,

I was just wondering if panic and anxiety can affect your periods. I am pretty late for mine and i was just windering if this could be caused by my anxiety.

hi brownie,
i think it probably can do,you often hear about peoples periods been late through anxiety or worry about something.
lots of other reasons as well apart from the obvious!
poor diet,severe weight loss are just some that i can think of.
hope this helps you
take care love em xxxx

Yes they can

When I was really bad my were all over the place. This can also happen if you are over tired, under pressure at work, exercising too much, underweight, dieting excessively, taking certain medications etc. etc.

Yes I'm sure it can - too

People forget us wimmin have delicate body clocks that are easily upset.
It could be caused by a number of things, as lottie says, The problem is - it becomes a vicious circle, the later it is the more you worry there may be something wrong.

Try not to worry too much, as these things have a habbit of sorting themselves out, however, if you miss more than one I would consider a visit to the doctor just to be on the safe side.

Don't worry hun, I'm sure everything will be fine.


Love, light and Best wishes

Have any of you guys had your periods early as a result of anxiety?

Hi Ladies,

Just wanted to add my experience with my monthy visitor . I have had several problems with my periods due to this disorder. I think it affects your hormones!!!! I think, but not sure. It seems that way with me. Good luck Christie, I`m sure it will be along soon. Rather you want it to or not. LOL.... . Keep posting to let us know how you are doing.

Take care,

I dont know about them being late as I am on the pill and only take a break about twice a year! But does anyone find their anxiety gets worse when they have their period? Mine does.

Yes!!!! Em,

My anxiety is full throttle like a week in advance to my period. My breathing and everything seems to be affected. Weird ey? I wonder why this is?

Take care,

Hi Em

Yes for definate. I get really panicky, like im back at square one. I get hot, dizzy, cant breathe and dont want to leave the house. The only thing im glad of tho is that ive realised why i feel like this now and i can talk myself out of panic easier by telling myself 'its ok, you know why you feel like this, you arent going backwards'...lol

love Sarah
