For all my pcos girlies, how long is too long for my period to be late? I’ve only ever been four days late before and started mid way of the 5th day, I am currently 6 days late and no period. PCOS or should I get a test?
1) have you been consistently late
2) have you been sexually active, take a test
3) my friend has gone 5 months without one

It never hurts to test. Take one for peace of mind. If it’s negative, it’s typically alright to miss a period for up to 3 months but after that you need doctor for a course of progestin to trigger a bleed.

have you had a lot of stress lately? Like due to finals or if you’re graduating or other factors?

I mean yeah, we’re moving in like 2 weeks and need to pack still and there’s finals. But idk I’ve been stressed before (I’m a chronic stresser) and I’ve never been this late bc of it?

i’m a chronic stresser too and sometimes it just randomly decides to be an issue. Last year I was two weeks late and it was after finals was done - and it was definitely like “it wasn’t that stressful, i’ve been more stressed, etc etc”

Oh ok maybe it’s that with a mixture of the PCOS as well. I will be retesting in about 3 days if I don’t start by then.
