Dateutil包实现了这样的功能。但要知道，这将是天真的，因为其他人已经指出。

这里有一个dateutil的例子。relativedelta，我发现它对于迭代过去一年很有用，每次跳过一个月到现在的日期:

>>> import datetime
>>> from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta
>>> today = datetime.datetime.today()
>>> month_count = 0
>>> while month_count < 12:
...  day = today - relativedelta(months=month_count)
...  print day
...  month_count += 1
... 
2010-07-07 10:51:45.187968
2010-06-07 10:51:45.187968
2010-05-07 10:51:45.187968
2010-04-07 10:51:45.187968
2010-03-07 10:51:45.187968
2010-02-07 10:51:45.187968
2010-01-07 10:51:45.187968
2009-12-07 10:51:45.187968
2009-11-07 10:51:45.187968
2009-10-07 10:51:45.187968
2009-09-07 10:51:45.187968
2009-08-07 10:51:45.187968

和其他答案一样，你必须弄清楚你说的“6个月后”到底是什么意思。如果你的意思是“六年后某个月的今天”，那么这个是:

datetime.datetime.now() + relativedelta(months=6)

下面是一个示例，它允许用户决定如何返回一个日期，其中一天大于一个月中的天数。

def add_months(date, months, endOfMonthBehaviour='RoundUp'):
    assert endOfMonthBehaviour in ['RoundDown', 'RoundIn', 'RoundOut', 'RoundUp'], \
        'Unknown end of month behaviour'
    year = date.year + (date.month + months - 1) / 12
    month = (date.month + months - 1) % 12 + 1
    day = date.day
    last = monthrange(year, month)[1]
    if day > last:
        if endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundDown' or \
            endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundOut' and months < 0 or \
            endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundIn' and months > 0:
            day = last
        elif endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundUp' or \
            endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundOut' and months > 0 or \
            endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundIn' and months < 0:
            # we don't need to worry about incrementing the year
            # because there will never be a day in December > 31
            month += 1
            day = 1
    return datetime.date(year, month, day)


>>> from calendar import monthrange
>>> import datetime
>>> add_months(datetime.datetime(2016, 1, 31), 1)
datetime.date(2016, 3, 1)
>>> add_months(datetime.datetime(2016, 1, 31), -2)
datetime.date(2015, 12, 1)
>>> add_months(datetime.datetime(2016, 1, 31), -2, 'RoundDown')
datetime.date(2015, 11, 30)

我插话晚了，但是

查看肯雷茨玛雅模块，

像这样的方法可能会对你有帮助，只需将小时=1改为天=1或年=1

>>> from maya import MayaInterval

# Create an event that is one hour long, starting now.
>>> event_start = maya.now()
>>> event_end = event_start.add(hours=1)

>>> event = MayaInterval(start=event_start, end=event_end)

user417751之前回答的重做。也许不是那么python的方式，但它照顾到不同的月份长度和闰年。在本例中，2012年1月31日+ 1个月= 2012年2月29日。

import datetime
import calendar

def add_mths(d, x):
    newday = d.day
    newmonth = (((d.month - 1) + x) % 12) + 1
    newyear  = d.year + (((d.month - 1) + x) // 12)
    if newday > calendar.mdays[newmonth]:
        newday = calendar.mdays[newmonth]
        if newyear % 4 == 0 and newmonth == 2:
            newday += 1
    return datetime.date(newyear, newmonth, newday)

按月开始计算:

from datetime import timedelta
from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta

end_date = start_date + relativedelta(months=delta_period) + timedelta(days=-delta_period)
