Missed Periods
Hello Doctor's
My wife has missed periods from 4days now. We tested through preganews kit but it turned out to be negative.
She had a history of PCOD also. Could you please let me know the possible reasons for the missed periods?

Is it a 28day cycle or 30 days cycle? Delay of 4 days is considered normal she can wait. And PCOS is one of the cause for mensural irregularities.
