Can stress cause you to miss your period for 2 months?

I'm pretty sure I am not pregnant, and yet I haven't had a period in 2 months. I've had a period since I last did it too.

I have been stressed out a lot lately, I'm used to handling stress well, so I am wondering if stress can really cause me to miss it for 2 months? Also 2 home tests came back negative.

Thanks !

    Yes, stress can make you miss 2 months in a row. You might want to see your doctor if you miss again next month, though. There are certain health conditions (like PCOS and endometriosis) that can make you miss your period too.

    Stress can definitely mess with your period. Two months though? You should probably see a doctor as they can do a blood test that is WAY more accurate than the home tests. Besides if you are two months pregnant, something will most likely show up on an ultra sound. In addition, if you ARE pregnant, you will want to find out asap so as to start working on the stress levels and how to reduce them so it doesn't impact your pregnancy.
