Brief Answer:
Can be due to lactation.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The delay in periods with a negative pregnancy test can happen due to the effect of lactation. I hope you are breast feeding your baby.
This can also happen due to a hormonal disturbance. You can consult your gynecologist and get hormonal tablets like norethisterone prescribed after ruling out the pregnancy with an ultrasound scan to get your periods. Do use a contraceptive or multiload or Cu-T to avoid pregnancy.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
