Periods delayed,Test Negative
Hello Doctor,
I am 31 years old female. My last period was on 10th August, and today is 25th September, so my periods are delayed by more than one month. I have checked pregnancy test at home and it is negative. I have a history of irregular periods earlier also. At present I have no fever, no severe abdominal pain, no white discharge and no other major symptoms. I am worried about the delay. Please advise what could be the reason and what tests or treatment I should take. Thank you.

Please get your beta HCG levels done and consult a Gynaecologist with the report.
From your description some of the most basic information is missing. So it will be better if you seek a proper consultation with a Gynaecologist.

The most common reason for delay if there is no pregnancy is lack of exercise and weight gain or being on the higher side of the body mass index
Other reasons could be pcos you can get an ultrasound done to find out
Deranged thyroid and prolactin levels you can get the levels checked

A missed period for over a month with a negative test, especially with your history of irregular cycles, is more often hormonal than a sign of pregnancy.
Next Steps
A thyroid and hormone panel along with a pelvic ultrasound will help find the cause. Repeat your home test in another week if your period still hasn't started.
Health Tips
See a gynaecologist sooner if you develop fever, pelvic pain, or heavy bleeding.
