Stress, changes of diet/exercise patterns, and pregnancy are all reasons why your period could be late. But since you said you're a virgin, it could be the other things I mentioned. Also, you're still pretty young (if your age is correct) and periods are bound to be irregular for a while.

Brittany pretty much summed it up. I would just like to add that stressing about it will just delay it even more, so relax!

Don't worry about it, like Brittany said. Especially at a young age they tend to be irregular! Sometimes you may even skip months.

Chill Periods are funny things, mine never comes at a reglar time. It was the 22nd of the month then I skipped one and got it on the 8th xD TMI? Just proving a point

Even if you've always been reglar they like to mess with tour had It's been summed up already

There is nothing to be worried about. Your period can be late if you're sick or if you're stressed out about something. Try not to worry about it too much, as stressing about it can make it come later. If you are still worried about it, you can always see a gynecologist to check things out and make sure you're definitely okay.

They can definitely be late. I once didn't have mine for a couple months but then it came back. Sometimes this happens, but its nothing to be worried about.

Certain meds I was on stopped my period completely. But yeah it's totally normal for girls to have late periods or entirely skip them. It's not a perfect science and there is nothing to worry about if your still a virgin. If your really scared, talk to your doctor or your gynecologist if you have one.
