What Causes Delayed Periods?
Hello! I m an 18 year old girl who just recently started becoming sexually active. I was supposed to receive my period 3 days ago, but it hasn t arrived yet. Although my partner and I used contraceptives, condoms, I m still slightly worried. I was supposed to receive it over the weekend, but I was also on a small trip to a state over. Thank you!

Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood the concern. If you have used regular contraception, you need not worry about conception. If not, you stand a chance. Delayed period can also be due to sudden weight changes, stress, certain medications, cysts of the ovary and infection. Please go for further evaluation if you do not see your period in a couple of days. Hope this helps.
