What Causes Delay In Periods With History Of Having Abortion?

I had a surgical abortion on April 3rd 2015 and I was 8 weeks pregnant that time. For the next 2 weeks I had spotting and it stopped. The next period I had was on May 15th 2015. The period was little heavy and lasted for 4 days. Now its June 22 3015 and my period is still not coming. I am worried should I go to a doctor?
