Hi there,
Welcome to HCM,

Sometimes the periods could be delayed due to stress, anxiety , hormonal imbalances in thyroid, prolactin, estrogen, progesterone or any other medical illness like anemia too.

If this has happened only once you need to be too concerned.

Pregnancy is ruled out as you have already done the tests twice. You need not worry so much and if you want to get he period right away, you should take progesterone tablets for three days and stop. After which you will get periods due to progesterone withdrawal.

If this happens again you need to be evaluated with ultrasound pelvis and hormonal studies

Hope this helps.
Regards.
