Can Antibiotics For Bacterial Vaginosis Cause Delayed Periods?
Can antibiotics for bv (doc said safe to take if trying to conceive) make my period late? My cycle is anywhere between 28-31 days and can always feel it coming and always have pms. This month no pms, no period by day 31, no feeling of period coming. Slightly tender nipples but negative pregnancy test on night of day 30. We only had sex once around time of ovulation

Hello,
No vaginal tablets don't cause delay in periods , you should repeat a pregnancy test after 2 weeks , till then start folic acid tablet ,also do a thyroid profile test , if your urine pregnancy test is negative after two weeks , medroxyprogesterone and will be required to start your periods.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
