Periods irregular: Polycystic ovarian syndrome will account for delays of what may appear to be "menstrual" bleeding, but is actually estrogen withdrawal bleeding without ovulation. See your gyn provider for a pelvic ultrasound, which will illustrate whether multiple cysts are present in your ovaries.
