Last month, my period did not come at all. i had some small spots and when i wore tampon, it stopped. This week i was expecting for it. I know it should come, i feel all the signs before it comes like headache, break outs, dysmenorrhea, laziness blah blah.. I know its there but it does not want to come out. I felt so uncomfortable. is there anything i can do to let it come out? i was told to drink very cold soda, have you ever heard about that? or beer? any medicine? FYI : I am 200% sure I am not pregnant because never had sex for the last 2 months. Please advice!!! feel really uncomfortable already...... I hope it comes today. Thanks!

Are you exercising really hard and/or not eating much? That can stop your period and it's not an uncommon problem for high-level athletes. I was a month late after taking a three-week Outward Bound course.

How old are you? Anywhere close to maybe menopause?

I had the same problem a few years ago - I was dieting and under a lot of stress. After a few months when I was taking better care of myself I got back to normal.

Do you have acne? Especially on the lower part of your face and neck? Do you have facial hair? Are you overweight? Those are signs of PCOS along with long/irregular/anovulatory cycles.

You can also have PCOS without any of the other symptoms. Make an appoint. with your OB to check things out.

You know, I was writing you a post about a D&C for a missed period when I stopped and read your post a second time.

You said you haven't had sex in over two months so you're 100% sure you're not pregnant. But then you said last month's period was only spots and a tampon wasn't even warranted, it was so light. This month you have cramps and all the symptoms, but no period.

I would take a pregnancy test and see if you're pregnant. When I was trying to have my last child, I was sure I wasn't, because I got my period right on time. It was light, but it was on time and I was bleeding. We kept trying and the next month, I was late so I took the test and was pregnant. Surprise, because when the OB did the initial ultrasound later, I had been pregnant a month before I knew about it, from that "light period" that was really only spotting.

I would advise you to see a GYN right away. If you're pregnant, you need to know asap, and if you're not, maybe you had a missed miscarriage? Either way, you need to know what's going on inside.

Good luck!
