            print("%s\t%s\t%s" %(start_date, end_date, m))

我认为这样做会比手动添加天数更安全:

import datetime
today = datetime.date.today()

def addMonths(dt, months = 0):
    new_month = months + dt.month
    year_inc = 0
    if new_month>12:
        year_inc +=1
        new_month -=12
    return dt.replace(month = new_month, year = dt.year+year_inc)

newdate = addMonths(today, 6)

这个解决方案适用于12月，而本页上的大多数答案都不适用。 在使用模量(%)或整数除法(//)之前，您需要首先将月份从基于1的索引(例如Jan = 1)转移到基于0的索引(例如Jan = 0)，否则11月(11)加上1个月得到12，当找到余数(12% 12)时，得到0。

(不要建议“(月% 12)+ 1”或10月+ 1 = 12月!)

def AddMonths(d,x):
    newmonth = ((( d.month - 1) + x ) % 12 ) + 1
    newyear  = int(d.year + ((( d.month - 1) + x ) / 12 ))
    return datetime.date( newyear, newmonth, d.day)

然而……这并不能解释1月31日+一个月的问题。所以我们回到OP，你说增加一个月是什么意思?一种解决方案是回溯，直到找到一个有效的日期，因为大多数人会假设一月的最后一天加一个月等于二月的最后一天。 这也适用于负数的月份。 证明:

>>> import datetime
>>> AddMonths(datetime.datetime(2010,8,25),1)
datetime.date(2010, 9, 25)
>>> AddMonths(datetime.datetime(2010,8,25),4)
datetime.date(2010, 12, 25)
>>> AddMonths(datetime.datetime(2010,8,25),5)
datetime.date(2011, 1, 25)
>>> AddMonths(datetime.datetime(2010,8,25),13)
datetime.date(2011, 9, 25)
>>> AddMonths(datetime.datetime(2010,8,25),24)
datetime.date(2012, 8, 25)
>>> AddMonths(datetime.datetime(2010,8,25),-1)
datetime.date(2010, 7, 25)
>>> AddMonths(datetime.datetime(2010,8,25),0)
datetime.date(2010, 8, 25)
>>> AddMonths(datetime.datetime(2010,8,25),-12)
datetime.date(2009, 8, 25)
>>> AddMonths(datetime.datetime(2010,8,25),-8)
datetime.date(2009, 12, 25)
>>> AddMonths(datetime.datetime(2010,8,25),-7)
datetime.date(2010, 1, 25)>>> 

这是我想到的。它移动了正确的月份和年份，但忽略了天数(这是我的情况所需要的)。

import datetime

month_dt = 4
today = datetime.date.today()
y,m = today.year, today.month
m += month_dt-1
year_dt = m//12
new_month = m%12
new_date = datetime.date(y+year_dt, new_month+1, 1)

Python的datetime没有直接的方法来做到这一点。

在python-dateutil中查看relativedelta类型。它允许您指定以月为单位的时间增量。

假设你的datetime变量叫做date:

date=datetime.datetime(year=date.year+int((date.month+6)/12),
                       month=(date.month+6)%13 + (1 if (date.month + 
                       months>12) else 0), day=date.day)
