Many things: Many things can cause a delay in your period. Pregnancy is of course always the first possibility but stress, changes in diet, exercise, weight, or schedule, medications, and illnesses such as thyroid disease, insulin resistance or diabetes, and PCOS are also possibilities.See your doctor for a full history and exam. These will determine which tests are indicated to find the cause. Hope this helps.
