Answer 3

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

1. Is this your first episode of delayed menstrual cycle?

2. Are the previous three cycles regular?

3. If this is your first episode, are there any new stress factors or recent history of exercise?

Usually, these are the causes of delay in your cycle. I would suggest you to wait for a week, for your cycles to come spontaneously and if not we will need further evaluation. I hope I have cleared all your doubts.

Thank you.
