Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The periods can be delayed by hormonal disturbance or stress caused by the dieting and weight loss.
I will suggest you to get your thyroid and prolactin levels done to confirm the diagnosis.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Regards,
Dr Deepti Verma
