Rigorous Exercise

Stress

Irregular Sleep Patterns
Irregular sleep can mess with hormone secretion and working of key glands. Irregular sleep patterns include both over sleeping as well as under-sleeping.

Being Overweight
Obesity and being overweight is another factor that can mess with your period. High body fat results in high levels of estrogen, disallowing your ovaries from releasing the egg. Obesity is a very prominent factor that affects periods in women.

Contraceptive Pills
People take birth control pills to have normal periods but it takes the body longer than you think to adjust. Contraceptives can interfere with your periods.

Underweight
In the case of being underweight, the body fails to produce enough estrogen- just the opposite of what happens in the case of overweight and obese women. Low estrogen levels can delay your period.
