late period (8 days)

my period is 8 days late. it was due on the 6th and it's the 14th now. it usually comes every 28 days, at most 31.
there's no chance of it being pregancy
my mum says it's fine but i've literally never had a period this late since i was 12 (im 16). whyyyy is this happening???

I would say not to worry too much, not because you shouldn't care about it, but it can happen every now and then without rhyme or reason. Honestly i would suggest waiting maybe one more week to see if you get your period, and if still no, a visit to the gp can't cause any harm and could put your mind at ease.

Although if this does keep happening often like randomly getting your period or missing it entirely some months, then please do go and get it checked as it could be a side effect of something else.

Probably stress related but could be a lot of other things.
Any change in your lifestyle?
Recent illness?
Change of diet?

Could be, just wait and see. It is OK to miss a period once in a while. Monitor it, now it is not something you need to worry, just eat good, sleep well and make sure everything is fine. If it doesn't come over a month or two, visit a gynecologists.

Just happens sometimes, sometimes you can miss a month with no underlying cause. I didn't get a period for 9 months because I was exercising a lot and following a restrictive diet

did you eat less than usual? my guess is this could be the cause of a late period start 🙂

It might just be stress. If there is no chance of pregnancy just carry on as normal, it'll probably land just when you've stopped worrying about it!

I think there is nothing to worry about. If there are no obvious reasons why they are late for a few days, then it is absolutely normal. My friend's periods often jump and skip one month. It doesn't happen that often, but it happens. Doctors say it's just a feature of the body. So I'm sure you're okay too.
