Quitting smoking and delayed period?


I quit smoking 3 1/2 weeks ago. Period was due 3 days ago. Pregnancy test negative. Has anyone else had a delayed period from quitting smoking? Was a smoker for 8 yrs.

That sounds possible, my period was late too and I am trying to quit smoking.

when you stop smoking, it is a massive shock to the system, it takes a couple of months for the body to cope with this change, hang on, one step at a time.

be lucky

When you smoke, it reduces the amount of testosterone that your body produces (yes, women produce testosterone). When you quit, you produce more testosterone and that is probably why you're a little late. I wouldn't worry.
