Depression, Bipolar Disorder. Taking Wellbutrin, Abilify. Can These Medicines Cause Delayed Periods?

I am on several drugs for depression and bipolar as well as oxyelite pr. The drugs are: Wellbutrin, Abilify, klonopin , gabapentin , zoloft and flexeril . I am 3 days late on my period and I was wondering 1.) Could any of these or a combo of these cause a delay in menstrual cycle or 2.) can they cause a false negative on a pregnancy test. I took a test and it was negative.
