Is it normal for your period to be late?

I just wanted to start off by saying that I am not pregnant because I've never had sex before. My period is now 3 days late, which is odd for me because I've never been late before. But, there are a few things that could be the cause of this and I was wondering if they actually could be. First of all, I am going through final exams at school and I've been really stressing about them. I heard stress can mess up your cycle. Also, I recently just stopped taking an anxiety medicine because it disrupts my sleep horribly. Could any of these factors be the cause of my late period?

    3 days is nothing to be scared of.

    Stress can cause your period to be late. Try to find something that helps you relax whether it is listening to music, painting, yoga, etc.

    I would guess that the stress would be the #1 factor messing with your cycle. You need to find ways to alleviate that stress, it's detrimental in the long run, believe me.
