Hi,
Periods can be delayed or irregular due to physical or psychological stress / after illness and weakness / hormonal imbalance due to thyroid, ovarian or pituitary gland problems. Please get home pregnancy test done after 8 days delay in period to exclude pregnancy and if the irregularity persists next month also, consult a gynecologist for specific advise.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
