For the past week i have been taking pills and exercising but now my period is 5 days late , why could this be?

Taking pills?: You mentioned that you've been "taking pills." hopefully you're referring to prescription medication that your doctor gave you and not something else. If you're late for your. The first thing you should do is check a pregnancy test. Hard-core exercising can delay menstrual cycles but not over such a short period of time.
