First of all thanks a lot doctor for answering
As you suggested I did the pregnancy test and it came out as negative. Actually I never experienced much delay in periods it used to come every month the only problem I get is scanty periods, but only this month it didn't came so I thought pregnancy might be a reason. So now does the reason of my delay of periods is because of pcos ????

Brief Answer:
PCOS may be the cause of late period.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for your update.
Beside pregnancy, delayed period may be due to extra mental stress or emotional upset, PCOS itself, hormonal imbalance, weight gain, irregular diet pattern etc.
Some investigation should be done like pelvic ultrasound scan, complete hormone profile (LH/ FSH, estrogen, progesterone, androgen, DHEAS, prolactin, thyroid level, Hb% etc). If you have done these tests recently, then you can attach them for suggestion.
Take LOW carbohydrate diet, IRON supplements, control body weight through regular exercise and maintain genital hygiene. Be stress free by regular yoga or meditation.
Oral contraceptive pill and Metformin may be required to regularize your cycle and improve period bleeding. You should consult with your doctor regarding this.
Hope, it helps for your information. Good luck and take care.
