Hello,your history is not complete, you did not mention about your age and your menustral history is incomplete...well delayed cycles or irregularity in cycles can occur due to many reasons, stress can either delay the periods or can cause early onset of periods..sometimes underlying medical causes like thyroid,pcos can cause irregular periods.As you did not have any sexual intercourse, pregnancy us ruled out.If you think the delay is too much, you can consult your gynaecologist for further evaluation or may be prescribed medicines for withdrawal bleeding if everything is normal.Hope I was helpful to you.
