What Causes Delayed Period With Vaginal Dryness/itchiness?
Hi there. My period is 10 days late and I m not sure if it should be cause for concern or not. I doubt it could be pregnancy as I last had sex 2 months ago and used a condom. I got my period once since however it was 4 days earlier than expected. I went on antibiotics mid-period, and as a result got a case of thrush after my period ended. Could this be the reason why I have not gotten my period yet or does it have any effect whatsoever on the reason why it is late or is this normal and no cause for concern? Also I am currently experiencing some vaginal dryness and itchiness at the moment. What could be other causes for a delayed or skipped period?

Do your urine pregnancy. test to rule out pregnancy.
Wait if not pregnant no need to do any other test presently .Observe your periods for next month .
If still delayed than you need to undergo thyroid test , LH, FSH, prolactin test and ultrasound to see for any polycystic ovaries.
