Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Delayed periods could be due to hormonal imbalance, emotional stress, excess weight loss/gain, thyroid problem or ovarian cyst.
I recommend you to get your hormonal profile done to rule out the above causes.
You can wait for 1 more week and get a urine pregnancy test done followed by ultrasound to be more sure.
hope this helps,
regards,
Dr Nilofer
