What Causes Delayed Period?
I had my period on the 16-19 of may, I started taking chlorophinical injection for typhoid on the 11-18 of June and I had unprotected sex on the 12 of June my next period should have been the 16 but it has not yet come. I did a pregnancy test it is negative.. What is the cause of my period delay?

Hello,
Most of the antibiotics do not interfere with your menstrual cycle and chloramphenicol certainly does not cause a delay in periods. I'd suggest wait for a week and take pregnancy test again.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
