Can A Tetanus Vaccination Delay My Monthly Period?

Can a vaccination against tetanus delay my monthly period? I am an 18 years old sexualy active girl and I received my first tetanus shot about 10 days ago. I should have gotten my period 09.03., but today it s 11.03. and I still haven t got my period. Can the vaccine delay my period or im I maybe pregnant? Thank you very much.

Hai,
1. Any vaccine cannot delay or stop your menstrual cycle.
2. Do a urine pregnancy card test - if negative, you can wait for 1 more week to get your normal cycle. Evenafter 10 days you are not getting your periods then you might need ultrasound pelvis and thyroid function tests.
