HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Irregular bleeding can be due to different possible causes eg fibroids, endometriosis, side effect of medication, hormonal causes, infection, thyroid disese.
If your period continues to be delayed then you should consider a pregnancy test to rule this out.
If this is ruled out then blood tests and imaging for the causes mentioned, would need to be considered.
I hope this helps
