Can a yeast infection cause you to miss a period?

I'm late on my period so I was googling it but I got conflicting answers.  Anyone know if a yeast infection can cause you to miss a period? Sorry if this is TMI.

  • I don't think so.

  • I was just wondering the same thing. I think it could.

    I should have got my period 2 days ago & I'm not pregnant (many many BFNs).  Thinking back, I had a yeast infection 2-3 weeks ago & I'm pretty sure it messed everything up.  I'm 100% sure I'm ovulating today - when I should have 14-21 days ago...Weird!

  • No.  Yeast in your vagina can't affect an egg releasing from your ovary.
  • I would say yes, just because any time I am sick with anything (including UTI) I miss my period.  but I've never had a yeast infection, so take that with a grain of salt

    This. Though stress and sometimes sickness can delay ovulation.

  • You're all pregornated.
  • No. It cannot. The only thing that causes you to miss a period is not ovulating--for whatever reason.

    ETA: or if you're pregnant...b/c then obviously you ovulated....

  • We are trying to get pregnant but I've taken 1 test and got a BFN.  I'm hoping that this yeast infection is masking the BFP. I know, I know...not likely. I guess that's just wishful thinking :)
  • I hope you get your BFP soon! But you should know that a YI cannot mask a BFP...

    Dang It!!! Just kidding. I was pretty sure it couldn't, but again, that's where the wishful thinking comes in.  *sigh*

    LOL Well good. You had me worried there...

    Yeah, I hear ya. This TTC stuff sucks. DH is sick and O'd this weekend. And thus we move on to another cycle. Bah.

  • Its funny to me that you posted this b/c I had a yeast infection this cycle right after I thought I O'd and my period was 5 days late.  Weird, very weird!!!!
