Delay In Periods, Have A Pilondial Cyst, Can This Be A Cause Of An Irregular Period Or A Pregnancy?

I always have protected sex correctly with my boyfriend and I always avoid my fertile window. I'm a week late. I've been 4-5 days late my past few periods. Could I be pregnant? I haven't been stressed and I haven't changef my diet nor have I been exercising. I do have a pilondial cyst, can this be a cause of an irregular period?

Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Pilonidal cyst if there is no abscess should not disturb your periods. However if there is a pus inside so it causes inflammation, this can be the reason of your delayed period. However such possibility is very low.
There is 100% secure pregnancy protection. Pregnancy is the most common reason of delayed period. However many other reasons like even a travel, tiredness or medicines can also affect a period. Its really hard to tell from the point of this service.
Please visit gynecologyst, have physical examination, transvaginal ultrasound and pregnancy test.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
