Hello,

Rubella vaccination does not cause delayed periods. This vaccine has nothing to do with delayed menses.

Vaccines do not cause delay in period as periods are regulated by hormones Apart from pregnancy, delayed periods can also be due to stress, emotional upset, hormonal disorders, diseases of the ovaries, change of occupation, et cetera.

Wait for a couple of days if your periods do not start, you may consult a gynecologist for further evaluation to find out the possible causes and to induce bleeding.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
