Should i be worried if menstrual period is slow to start?

Probably not!: "welcome to menopause" or "welcome to motherhood". If it's possible for you to be pregnant (ie, unprotected sex with a man, ) confirm with a drug store urine pregnancy test or go to your doctor's office ( the same test!) if you also have hot flashes at night this may be the first phase of menopause, and normal for the cycle to be longer. Did you spot midcycle? That's not normal- get testing.

Probably not: If your periods are generally regular, then there should be nothing to worry about relating to the cycle.
