Missing Periods, Usually Regular, Under Stress, Having Egg White Dscharge
I am 54 years old and am still having regular periods (every 25 -30 days). However, I am currently 11 days late and have been under a lot of stress since October 11th when placing my dad in assisted living. Yet yesterday I experienced the egg white discharge similar to when I ovulate. Can stress cause me to miss a period?

Hi, Thanks for calling Health care magic forum.
You are a female, aged 54 years, still having regular periods.This time you are late by 11 days due to stress. but yesterday you had egg white discharge, as if ovulating time.
As you describe stress can definitely strss can definitely can have effect on the periods. Other causes are the anemia, infection, and pre menopausual condition.
I advise you to consult a gynecologist for diagnosis and treatment. Thank you.
