    Period due but no period just stomach bloating
    Well my period was due 5 days ago and it hasn't came. My stomach is just bloated and feels so uncomforting. Every time when my period is coming, my stomach gets a little bloated and then it comes on, but this time it just is bloated. I don't even have cramps just bloating. I feel embarrassed when I wear tight shirts or after I eat because I look a little pregnant. I don't know maybe its stress because I have been going through a lot lately. I'm so confused and this bloating needs to stop plus when I sleep, I try not to sleep on my stomach. What could be the problem?

    It could be a variety of things. Bloating, in fact, can be dangerous.

    Have you talked to a Physician about this?

    I don't think my situation is dangerous because there are all kinds of bloating. Not the dangerous bloating you're talking about.
    It may be my cycle trying to come on but my stress is making it late. It has only been occurring for a fews days.
    However, if it continues then I'll go to see a physician to see what's the problem.

    Is there a possibility that you're pregnant?

    If so, have you taken a home pregnancy test?

    No I haven't taken a pregnancy test but I need to. I'm just trying to see if my period will come because now I'm starting to feel cramps like my period is trying to start. Most of the time when it feels like its about to be late, I drink orange juice and I had some this morning and the other day but I need to drink the orange juice with pulps because that one works better.

    If you think drinking orange juice will start a late period, you are very mistaken.

    I also don't know how you can tell the difference between dangerous bloating and routine bloating - although you have said that you can.

    Drinking orange juice may not work for you but it works perfectly for me.

    And as far as the bloating is concerned, I will see a physician when I feel the need to do so. End of story.

    No, the end of the story is that there is absolutely no medical basis to drinking orange juice/getting your period and someone may very well read this and follow your advice. In the meantime, she could have serious problems and bloating may be her only symptom.

    Good you'll see a Physician when you feel the need to do so - when will that be?
