I’ve read online that weight gain and loss can mess with your cycle, is it possible in my case?

I’m 23F. My cycles have always been inconsistent at best but usually land around 34 days or less. However, I’m currently on day 45 with no sign of a period yet. I took two pregnancy tests last week and they came up negative (may take them again because anxiety lol).

I’ve been doing some reading on causes of delayed periods, and I noted that weight loss and gain was a common theme on the lists. However, they usually had the footnote “in extreme cases,” and I am not sure what makes that threshold and if that might be affecting my cycle.

Since the beginning of my last cycle, which was on November 28 or so, I gained nine pounds between holidays, my usual shitty eating habits, and an ill conceived “food funeral,” and then, since the first, lost three and a half of them with mostly diet but some exercise as well. While these aren’t the most extreme, do you think that the rapid changes could have had an affect? Should I go take another test? Gah lol
