Brief Answer:
Delayed periods are normal

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I read your query and I understand your concerns about delayed periods.

It is perfectly normal to get periods delayed by upto 10 days once in a while.

This happens due to stress, examinations, family problems, change to a new place or climate etc..

Hence I advice you to wait for 10 days before taking any medicines.

Rule out pregnancy if you had sexual intercourse in this period.
