I Missed My Period- Now What?

Mar 10

Missing your period can be stressful, especially if you weren’t expecting to be pregnant. But a late period doesn’t always mean pregnancy.

Here are a few reasons your period might be late.

Pregnancy

Pregnancy is one of the most common reasons for a missed period. When conception occurs, the body begins producing hormones that stop ovulation and menstruation.

Stress

Stress can affect hormones that regulate your menstrual cycle, causing delays.

Weight Changes

Significant weight gain or loss can sometimes disrupt normal hormone levels.

Exercise Changes

Sudden increases in intense physical activity can impact your cycle.

Hormonal Imbalances

Conditions like thyroid disorders or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may also affect your cycle.

When Should You Take a Pregnancy Test?

Many home pregnancy tests work best after the first day of a missed period.

If the result is positive, it’s important to confirm the pregnancy and determine how far along you are.

Grace Schupp

Hi, I’m Grace Schupp — a visual artist and designer bringing color, sparkle, and a little bit of magic to everyday moments. I specialize in hand-poured epoxy resin creations, including one-of-a-kind stemless wine glasses, bold statement pieces, and unique gifts that turn ordinary moments into “wow” experiences.

Every piece I make is handcrafted with care, blending vibrant colors, shimmering accents, and playful textures. My work is all about joy, curiosity, and creativity — whether it’s a glass that makes your sip sparkle or a piece of art that transforms your space.

When I’m not creating in my studio, you’ll find me exploring new color palettes, experimenting with resin techniques, and finding inspiration in everyday life. My mission is simple: to create art that sparks delight, celebrates individuality, and brings beauty into the everyday.
