Brief Answer:
PCOD likely

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
I pill causes irregular and delayed periods for next3-4 cycles.
However, PCOD can also lead to irregular periods and this can be the reason for delayed periods in your case.
I will suggest you to get an ultrasound done to confirm the diagnosis and get appropriate treatment.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
