late period, period is 3 days late. Options

[Coco218888888888...]

Hi. I'm just looking for help because my period is 3 days late and I'm usually very regular. At the time i was supposed to be ovulating earlier this month, I bled slightly for 3 days and then stopped. I thought that to be weird since it neevr happend before but when it stopped, I didnt think anything of it. Now, as i mentioned before, I'm going to be three days late for my period. What could this be? Does anyone have any ideas? please help. im so paranoid that something is rong

i've neevr actually had sex. me and my boyfriend are sexually active in other ways but we've never actually done it.

thanks so much to the last couple of people. your advice was so helpful!!
just to clarify tho,to the people who said they were usually regular... were u regular down to the very day...? and if so, did u suddenly come late one month, after coming on time the previous month?

A lot of women don't have "normal" 28 day cycles. I'm not sure how old you are or how long you have been getting your period, but the first year can be more abnormal than the rest of the years you get your period. I was put on the pill to help me regulate my cycles and to help with the pain that I usually get. If you have abnormal cycles, like skipping periods, heavy bleeding, heavy cramping, etc. then you might want to talk to a Gynecologist. If you plan on being sexually active, having cycles that don't happen around the same week of each month can cause a lot of unnecessary stress and is definitely a reason to talk to a doctor about birth control.
