Q: Can UTI delay my period?

I just found out that I have UTI, and I've been waiting for my period since Jan. 11.  Could that be a reason why I'm late?

It may have some connection. Are you taking drugs for the UTI? That can cause a delay, as can stress and worry, and you may have some of that.

There is an article you may wish to read, written by Merely Me, a writer and community leader for this site, titled, Reasons Other Than Pregnancy for a Delayed Period.

She also wrote an article, What You Need to Know About a Urinary Tract Infection, that may be of help.
