However, missed periods can be a sign of numerous health problems. So the best thing to do is to consult your doctor to know the right cause of it and get it treated. If you experience heavy bleeding, pain, vomiting, fever or have longer than normal periods, then meet your gynaecologist immediately.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of the health conditions that can cause missed periods include <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Stress<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Being Underweight<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Obesity<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Birth control pills<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Chronic diseases like diabetes and thyroid<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Early Menopause<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, we are not divulging into the details of the health problems, but are here to tell you more about periods and answer the common queries related to missed periods and pregnancy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What Causes Missed periods?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ideally, the menstrual cycle ranges from 21 days to 35 days. However, due to changes in the hormonal level there are chances that your periods might get delayed. But if your menstrual cycle is shorter than 15 days or if it is longer than 35 days, it means you suffer from irregular periods. There are numerous causes of missed periods right from the use of birth control pills and pregnancy to obesity and stress. To know the exact cause of missed periods it is important to consult a doctor.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/online-consultation?utm_source=articletrack&amp;utm_medium=consultation\"><b>**Consult India\u2019s best doctors here***<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Does Missed Periods Indicate Pregnancy?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, there are high chances that missed periods could be a sign of pregnancy but only if you have been sexually active. This is because, every month, the body prepares the uterus for the pregnancy. If fertilization doesn\u2019t occur, it causes the uterus lining to shed leading to menstrual bleeding. This is regulated by the hormones estrogen and progesterone.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The hormone estrogen stimulates the growth of the uterine lining whereas the hormone progesterone aids in the growth of the uterus lining. So when the level of progesterone decreases, the uterine lining sheds, leading to periods. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But when you get pregnant, the secretion of progesterone hormone is triggered which causes the uterine lining to thicken and restrict its shedding, thus not leading to periods. This is the reason why missed periods indicate pregnancy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Missed periods. How do I know if I am pregnant?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are certain changes that happen in the body during pregnancy. These signs usually start after a week of conception and include:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">-Missed periods<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">-Implantation bleeding<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">-Headache<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">-Fatigue<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">-Abdominal cramps<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">-Vaginal discharge<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">-Nausea<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">-Breast soreness and tenderness<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Food cravings<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 400;\">-Frequent urination<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you experience any of these signs or suspect being pregnant, then it is wise to consult a doctor to know the exact cause of missed periods. Your gynaecologist might ask your personal history and do a physical examination. If she suspects pregnancy, then she may order a blood test to confirm pregnancy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are reluctant to visit a doctor personally, you can even go for online consultation. Another simple way to know if you are pregnant is to use a home pregnancy test kit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/search\/all?filter=true&amp;name=Pregnancy%20test%20kit\"><strong>Book a pregnancy test kit from our range of best kits.
