There are other factors that can cause a late period besides pregnancy. Find them out below<\/p>\n<p><b>1. STRESS<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t rule out stress if your period comes late as stress can cause a late period. The hypothalamus in the brain is where a lot of the hormones for your period are regulated and the hypothalamus can be affected by stress hence causing you to have a late period.<\/p>\n<p><b>2. RAPID WEIGHT LOSS OR GAIN<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Rapid weight loss or gain can delay or cease\u00a0menstruation. When you gain weight or loss weight rapidly, it could stress your body\u2019s vital organs hence causing you to have a late period.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. THYROID IRREGULARITY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Having a thyroid imbalance whether it\u2019s hypo- or hyperthyroidism can affect your period and cause you to have a late period.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. BIRTH CONTROL<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A late period can be a harmless side effect of using birth control pills. When you stop using birth control, it can also take some time for your period to come back.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. EXCESSIVE EXERCISE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Exercising is good for the body but excessive exercise forces the body to protect itself, and preventing ovulation can be a by-product of that phenomenon. So your late period can be as a result of excessive exercise.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. SICK OR INJURED<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Being sick or injured can cause late periods but your body will ovulate when it feels you are healthy again.<b>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>S.O.Z<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having a late period could&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":19018,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[2584],"tags":[2688],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19015"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19015"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19015\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25941,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19015\/revisions\/25941"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19018"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19015"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19015"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elcrema.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19015"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
