I understand your concern.
Severe generalised illness, stress(physical & mental) and even anemia can cause disturbance in menstrual cycle causing delay if not pregnant.
So, since you have Vit B12 deficiency it may be related to anemia. Hence please undergo basic investigations like haemoglobin and send report for further suggestions.
All the best.
