The first thing to do is to take a home pregnancy test. For the most accurate result, test in the morning as soon as you wake up.
If you get a negative result, stress can be the reason for the delay. During periods of high stress, the body produces more of the hormone called cortisol. In response, the body will shut down non essential functions, like the menstrual cycle.
Lastly, you can schedule an appointment with a gynecologist to find out the reason for irregular periods in the past few months.
You will be one step ahead by having already taken a home pregnancy test.
