Can stress delay your cycle?

I've been stress lately since the beginning of March my monthly cycle should be around 22-25 and it's April 6 my tracker said I'm 7days delayed. I took pregnancy test but it resulted negative. I have my regular cycle almost half a month. I'm scared that could lead to many issue or infertility.

It absolutely can! It's been a 8-10 days late twice in the last year and a half while under serious stress.

What do you think I should do?

Wait it out. If you hit 10-14 days take another test. It is possible to fully skip a month, but I've never had it happen.

I went through this in 2023. I was being medically separated from the military and was away from my husband and babies. My period started skipping by two to three weeks at a time. It became regular again until I found I have a fibroid and adenomyosis. It’s been a mess for over a year now.
