Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

Since you are not having any physical relations with anyone, pregnancy is ruled out.

The other reasons of delayed periods could be hormonal imbalance, emotional upset, anxiety, stress, or other medical conditions that affect the ovaries, uterus, hypothalamus, or pituitary gland. Hypothyroidism, post pill amennorhea , polycystic ovarian syndrome or less frequently a pituitary tumor causing high prolactin levels or a hypothalamic disease are other causes that need to be explored.

If this has happened for the first time, then you can simply wait for few more days and see if your periods begin. Else visit your gynecologist to undergo physical check up. He/she may also suggest you to undergo relevant investigations required in your case to find out the cause so that treatment can be given accordingly.

Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.

Wish you good health.

Regards
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.

Hello.

Thanks for writing again.

Normally, one should not miss periods, but this is not a uncommon problem. Mild hormonal imbalances are responsible for most of the times. You can wait till the end of this month and if still there is no bleeding, then you must consult your Gynecologist for further advice and treatment.

Hope my answer is helpful. Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wish you good health.

Hello and thanks again,

A change in place and weather and altered environmental factors and even change in diet can delay or prepone the periods. Your traveling might be a responsible factor in the delay of your periods.

Hope I have answered all your queries. Please do accept this answer if there are no further queries.
