Hello,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic. For delayed periods, firstly you need to test your pregnancy status by doing a urine for pregnancy test for which kits are readily available in market. Use a morning sample of urine and presence of two lines means a positive test. Alternately you can consult a gynecologist immediately who will do a serum beta hcg test and a pelvic ultrasound to confirm or rule out pregnancy. If pregnancy is ruled out and periods don’t come then the other causes may include hormonal imbalance due to taking cycloreg or other medical conditions that affect the ovaries, uterus, hypothalamus, or pituitary gland.

You have to consult a gynecologist to get it evaluated. Hope it helps you. Regards.
