General Surgeon, Dr. Shinas Hussain's Response

Hello,

Slight menstrual disturbances and delayed period can happen normally and it does not indicate any disease condition. You can wait for few days for spontaneous bleed.

If periods delayed for a longer duration you can consult a gynaecologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
