Hi

Masturbation does not cause missed periods.

In absence of having unprotected penetrative sex (as you do not have a bf), delayed periods could have been caused by stress, anxiety, or hormonal imbalances (including thyroid problems, etc).

Consult a gynecologist for proper evaluation to find out the exact cause of delayed menses.
Avoid doing masturbation it is not a healthy and hygienic practice.

Hope to have answered your query.
