Kate Smith answered this 'Why Is My Period Late Or Early?': Causes Of Sudden Menstrual Cycle Irregularities

Sunday of this week I went to my boyfriend's barbecue and got sick the next day. I was weak, sore intensely in the neck and having a migraine, dizzy later in the day after moving around, and getting hot and cold easily. The next day however I was feeling better but I was unable to eat little to nothing that day and yesterday and a little bit the following day. So I've been pretty malnourished.
On Wednesday I found out that my father is dying...and I've already been stressed out quite a bit because of my college classes. I start my placebos this sunday and usually my period starts before then like today or yesterday however I haven't spotted at all.

Is it possible that I will miss it this month? I've been craving sweet and salty foods like I normally do, my hair has gotten slightly oiler and my skin is breaking out like it does before my period yet nothing has happened yet. Is it because I've been sick and stressed out that its being prevented from coming?

Stress can do weird things to our bodies, like keep periods away.
Sounds like you have a lot going on at this time.
It is possible to skip a month. But as long as you have been taking your pills like you are supposed to, i would think it would be just stress that is delaying your period.
