Missed period same time for 3 years in a row

so no one has ever gotten a respse?

The same exact

The same exact thing happened to me. I am on year three, of skipping Nov, Dec periods. I am looking at my previous journals. And here is the only thing that I can come up.

Four years ago, I had the worst Xmas of my life. One of my adult children had come home from his first year in college. He acted like a complete and total monster, assaulting a family member, and relentlessly acting like the biggest jerk he could possibly be. This is putting it mildly. He is my first born, and he's always had deep emotional issues, but how he acted at that very long visit, took the cake.

After wards, I went into a probablly a very deep and over due depression about him, and our impending and most necessary estrangement. I did some deep digging and after the depression lifted, I had a different perspective on things, and trying to help him.

Since then, he still visits, and everything, and I;ve managed to come up with a way to deal with him and keep other family members safe. But each year, now, and ever since, I live with this new hyper awareness, sensitivity and impending sense of panic and doom toward the holidays. It starts right after Halloween. I get this horrible anxiousness and I am not as happy as I am in the fall.

So now, in anticipation of a god awful and very long visit, I am stressed out to the gills. I am TTC again, well over 40, cycles have always been like clockwork. I 've read that the HPA Axis, hypothalmus, pitutarity, adrenals, which is responsible for ovulation, is very sensitive to stress. Hormones that are supposed to develop eggs, instead turn into cortisol!

My take, that in my agitated state at the end of the year, I dont ovulate, {even though my basal temps look like it does} and I dont get my period in November. This jumpstarts a cascade effect to the next cycle. December, and I miss that period too. By January, things even out, and its normal, if there is an issue, that it takes 3 months for cycles to even themselves out due to many things, {dietary changes, exercise, climate, etc}.

Since these changes seem to be seasonal for a lot of us here, I think that time of year, when you skip a period, look for environmental changes, as well as personal ones. Stress is a huge ONE, and effects the follicular phase. And if you dnot ovulate, then typically there is no period. {typically, but it can happened and does happen to some}

I've given up on Nov, Dec, as the holidays have historically, been horrible for me, and I cant wait for my family to go home, and for me to get back to my life. I will probably skip Nov, dec next year too.

Wow, I really wasn't sure what I would find about this. My period is usually very regular, but this is the fourth year this has happened to me (I'm 20, for context, so no menopause). Sometimes my period skips January through March(!)

I figured it might be because of winter, but I don't know. Maybe there will be research and case studies about this in the future.

Same here with me I always miss my period every February and yet am not pregnant.

I AM currently 33 days without my cycle, this happens to me every year from Feburary to March .I do have severe endo, however i had 2 cycles in December & spotted in janurary as well as had a full cycle for 14 days =(.. it is now march 1 & i am not pregnant .... and am cramping like i am ON but this has been happening for about 2 weeks now... so if nothing happens between now and APRIL ... ILL look deepeer than my endo

Yes it has been happening to me for about 3 years? I'm like wtf??

Im not 18 and this is my third year going through it. For the first two years it was in November but now we’re in March and I’ve taken pregnancy tests but it’s saying negative I’m going to the doctor soon so hopefully I can find out why.

I meant I am 18 sorry

I know this is an old thread, but I experience the same issue in March if every year. I also have two menstrual cycles every year in September or October. Maybe this can give someone piece of mind. I asked family and friends about this and they also experince the same thing, its just that some women are more aware of this phenomenon.

Nothing is wrong with any of us according to my Mom. There were not always 12 months in a year. There were 13 months.

Our body is still in tune with nature and no one can change that. Check it out. All the best to everyone.

I'm usually a 26 day cycle. This is the 4th year always spring. I'm now 8 days late. I'm 38, every year I take a bunch of pregnancy tests they all have a faint line then my period comes back. Doctors think I'm crazy. Lol by the time I get my period back every year I think I'm going crazy also. Glad to hear that I'm not the only one. Wish I knew what is causing this.

Happens to me only in feb-mar and I.started paying attention every year. Its because feb is a short month and most women cycle every 29-30 days, I'm every 30 days. But since feb only has 28-29 days it's late every march and always pops back up exactly 30 days from the date it went off. I was amazed at just how smart out bodies are! Just makes us even more awesome!

Hi all... 3 years ago I went through a stressful situation (work related) in which that month I missed my period. I went for a blood test to check if I was pregnant, that's how sure I wanted to be... To be negative. I spoke to my family doctor as well as my gyni, they both did some blood tests as well as a general check up (gyni was worrisome that it could be polycystic ovarian syndrome... But was not) and both concluded that it was stress related. At the time I was 27... I noticed that since then every year around March or April... When I missed my period that first time... I miss my period... It's as if my body remembers that stressful situation in my life going on now 3 years ago... I decided to share my story of what I noticed with my own body so that perhaps you can think about what was going on in your life the first time you missed your period... Perhaps this phenomenon really is stress related because the reality for me is that my periods have been and still are punctual and I do not use any forms of contraception other than condoms. I hope my story is helpful and I'm glad to read others who also confirm for me that it is stress related.

I get the same thing though, and I'm in southern California. we don't get weather. same time of year too, this is so weird!

I miss mine from March till sometimes June for the last 5 years. I'm regular from August till February. I can't get pregnant so I'm not worried about that but it's kinda weird.
