Period delay after any surgery is common. Physical and emotional stress from the operation can shift the cycle for a month or two, and light spotting can be an early cycle trying to restart.
Next Steps
Please repeat a first-morning urine pregnancy test if you are still late in another seven days, and consult a gynaecologist if the period still does not come.
Health Tips
See a doctor sooner if you develop heavy bleeding, severe pain, or fever.
