A member asked:
Infection. she's on contraceptives. her period is fixed and should've come yesterday or today. could it be delayed by any other reason than pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There are other causes for delayed periods. A doctor can usually figure it out by taking a good history from the patient. That being said, the first thing he will ask for is a pregnancy test. Once that is negative, he will start looking for other causes.
