Thanks for your response. What can be the reason of the delayed period? I have put on my belly also in this four months.
Can you suggest something on this? Looking forward for your help.

Brief Answer:
Can be due to stress and anxiety.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
The delay in periods can be due to stress and anxiety. The belly will decrease as soon as your periods will start. This is due to fluid retention caused by delayed periods. You can get hormonal tablets prescribed from your gynecologist to have periods.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
Regards.
