Hi,

Welcome to Health Care Magic,

I am Dr.Naveed Ullah khan,

I have read your question in detail and will try to help you in the best way possible.

The first thing i.would like u to do it is to do a urine pregnancy test again and if you are sexually active. If that is still negative then a quantitative hCG blood test would be next. And let me point out as you said it should be shorter if u r stressed bwcause of work, but ur cycles maybe prolonged during stress too. I would like to know more about your age and any other symptoms if u are having it. Because if there is no pregnancy then it is imporyant to find.out the cause for delayed periosds.


I hope this answered all your queries, if you have more queries,I will be happy to answer.

Wish you the best of health.

Regards.

Dr.Naveed Ullah Khan.
