I have missed my period (I am not pregnant) could be because two of my coworkers are pregnant?? I believe in synchronize period which we had. But now I am thinking that I missed my period because I am around pregnant woman too much.

Please help!!

If you are thinking too much about it or stressing, you could possible have thrown you cycle out of whack. A lot of women can psychologically trick their bodies into acting pregnant. I think you are thinking too much about it... but if you have had unprotected sex recently and the period still does not come I would test.

No... being around someone who is pregnant does not affect your body... pregnancy hormones aren't airborne..

I have to agree with Alk. Your body does not recognize that your friend is pregnant and throw you into symptoms. I understand your thinking because it is common that best friends do end up with common cycles. But it does not work this way with pregnancy.

If you have had sex of any kind, protected or not, you should get a pregnancy test. If it is negative, you should consult your doctor for a proper diagnosis.
