I am unsure if I am pregnant. My period was supposed to come 3 days ago, but I have no sign of AF. I'm never usually late, but this month I have been stressed out, lost a dramatic amount of weight in a week (7 pounds) and I mixed over the counter drugs (paracetamol, etc) and high amounts of Vitamin C. I haven't had any symptoms that are unusual. I've had no nausea, no fatigue, I've had a bit of back pain and tender breasts, but nothing unusual compared to my usual PMS. The only thing that is different is that I have had faint discharge, but mainly just wet and clear discharge. I don't know if my period could be delayed due to fact that I've dropped in weight and 'popped' pills. I have a rushing sensation to my vagina, almost as if AF is trying to break through.
 
Have you done a pregnancy test?
Losing a dramatic amount of weight quickly can delay your period as can stress, however the weight thing is usually when your body fat percentage drops too low. If you're still within a healthy weight range and you're eating healthily and you aren't over exercising then you should be ok. Everyone is different of course and whilst I think the general rule of thumb is around 22% body fat for a healthy cycle, mine dropped to 14% a while ago and I still had cycles each month. Someone else may have completely lost their cycle.
I missed three periods once for an unknown reason. Doctor put it down to stress although I wasn't any more stressed than usual.
If you're always on time then I would do a pregnancy test first and if it's negative then perhaps see your doctor
