What Reasons Can Delay Periods When Sexually Not Active?
Hello, I am a 21 year old female in good health. I am 2 weeks late on my period. I am a virgin and not sexually active. I am not under stress or anything like that, so what are some other reasons that I am so late? Usually my periods vary in cycle length, but only from about 27 days to 35. This is much later than even my latest period has ever been. Thank you!

Hello ma'am and welcome.
The causes for a delayed period in an otherwise normal woman can be numerous, but I shall list a few of the most common ones out for you:
-Medication
-Climate
-Change in lifestyle
-Excessive exercise
-Hormonal imbalance
-Abnormalities of the uterus
-Abnormalities of the inner lining of the uterus
-Infections
-Pelvic inflammatory disease
-Polycystic ovarian syndrome
and so on.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
