Period irregularity can sometimes occur in response to a stressful event. It may take a few weeks for regularity to return , it may be normal by the next 1 to 2 cycles.
If you are sexually active, you should rule out pregnancy by using an early detection kit that can pick up low levels of the HCG hormone. This is the hormone released in pregnancy.
In addition to pregnancy and stress the other causes of a delayed period are: inadequate diet, extreme physical activity, high prolactin or thyroid hormone levels,
I hope this helps
