Sorry, kind of an ick topic, but has anyone had any experience with this? I just got my period back after EBF in May, had a 28 day cycle and then a 26 day cycle. Got a dreaded yeast infection earlier this week... Should have started my period today (CD 29 now) and nothing. No AF signs either (no cramps, PMS, etc). I'm wondering if the yeast infection could have screwed with my cycle? Anyone know?
(Thanks for any input- I know this isn't the most pleasant of topics!)

I don't think it would affect your cycles. I had a yeast infection a couple of years ago and I still had my period..it was pretty gross!
-
It could be causing enough stress on your body to delay it. Kind of like being sick with a cold could delay it.
-
I get yeast infections pretty frequently, but they've never delayed my period. Like @Sugar.Biscuit said, there could be some other stress delaying it or your cycle is still regulating.

That's good to know about the not delaying thing- I haven't had a yeast infection since college (10 years ago!) so it's good to know it probably isn't messing with anything. I don't know that I'm really that stressed about anything, except LO's first birthday is coming up on Sunday so I've been crafting like a mad woman!!
Thanks for the insight gals! I kind of hope AF shows herself soon.. We had been not really "trying" for #2 but we recently decided to stop "not trying" for a couple months and so... It would be good to get a confirmation! -
No, not unless you had it around the time of ovulation and it stressed you out enough to delay ovulation. Once you've ovulated, nothing except pregnancy can delay your period.

Not that I know of but are you still breastfeeding? My cycles are always between 26-40 days because of BFing.
