What Is The Cause For Late Periods?


I am 33 years old and had a Tubal ligation when I was 23, after giving birth to my 2nd child. I am 4 days late for my period with a negative pregnancy test. This has happened once already this year. My period has always been regular and my pap smears are normal. What could cause these really late periods?
