Answer 1

dont worry, your just behind a couple of days, you will get it soon.  And no, its not possible to get pregnant after u got raped 8 months later and had your period.  Im so sorry you got raped =[

Answer 2

First off, I am so sorry you had to go through such a trying situation!  Wow, that's horrible.  To ease your mind, let me tell you this....stress tremendously affects your period.  The more you stress - the more irregular it becomes.  So, obviously, you've been under a lot of pressure...it could be affecting your period.  Also, if you are three days late, invest in a pregnancy test...it will help ease your mind.  The fact that it was eight months ago makes it HIGHLY unlikely that you would be pregnant.  Go get a test...you will feel much better!  Good luck to you, honey.

Answer 3

That's pretty much impossible. There's no way you can be pregnant after 8 months of normal periods.

Don't be scared. Periods that aren't on "time" are actually very common in teen girls. Mainly because since teen girls are still young the cycle is still regulating.

Another reason is definitely stress. Stressing too much causes for a chemical in our brains to slow the secretion of it, therefore interfering with the hormones that produce our periods.

Other possible reasons:

Eating Disorders/Poor Diet

Excessiveant Weight or Gain Loss

Excessive Alcohol/Drug Use

Too much caffeine

Don't panic over this. Most likely your cycle is regulating.

A friend of mine started her periods normally around the 20 ish and now months into her period the date has changed to the 10th ish.

Hope this helps you and relieve some stress off of you. :)
