Hello,
Thanks for sharing your health concern with us. In the current scenario, more than the medication, the work and the weight changes along with the stress are likely to have caused the delay in the period. You need a hormone assay along with a trans-vaginal sonogram to clarify and plan further management. Hope this helps.
