Does Biotin Affect The Menstruation Cycle?

I ve been taking biotin for about a month or so & I was wondering if biotin can delay a period? I had protected sex w/ my partner on the 1st of feb. & I was supposed to get my period 17 days ago. I m usually very irregular w/ my period yet I ve never come to a point where I ve skipped it all together. this is the latest I ve gone so idk what it can be. I ve also realized I m having some clear white discharge recently, not excessive but more than usual. & if wondering, I have not had any pregnancy symptoms what so ever, & I m not expecting either. please help, Im not really sure what it can be.

Hi..
Thanks for writing to us..
Biotin per se doesn't cause delayed periods..
As such your cycles are irregular don't worry..
There are various reason for delayed periods like stress, your diet and general well being..
You can get an ultrasound done to know the reason for irregular cycles.
Hope this information helps..
Take care.
