Hi, paracetamol and ibuprofen can delay your periods because there can interfere with ovulation. So, don't worry. Do a pregnancy test if you are sexually active and if negative, take medicines for inducing periods. You should also do a thyroid profile and prolactin levels and a ultrasound for your uterus and ovaries to rule out any other cause of irregular periods.
