Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I have gone through your query and health concerns in the same detail , there is possiblity of delay periods without pregnancy ,
Missed or late periods happen for many reasons other than pregnancy. Common causes can range from hormonal imbalances to serious medical conditions. There are also two times in a woman's life when it's totally normal for her period to be irregular: when it first begins, and when menopause starts.
there are more reasons than just being pregnant for a missed period. ... That can cause a late or missed period. As well as extreme exercise, weight loss or weight gain, eating disorders, or it could be your body still working out your cycle.
for some women, stress may play a role in causing irregular or missed periods. As stress levels rise, there's a chance that your menstrual period will temporarily stop, a condition known as secondary amenorrhea.
Some medical problem will also effect the cycle ,if you don't have your period in next 3-5 days than you can go for Ultrasound or consult gyneocologist .
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
