Delayed Period with Clear Discharge: Causes and Next Steps

Why Your Period Is Late (Negative Pregnancy Tests)

• Normal hormonal fluctuations – stress, illness, travel can shift cycles by a week or two.
• Birth control – hormonal methods can cause irregularity or amenorrhea (no period) by suppressing ovulation.
• Pregnancy (still possible) – false negatives occur if tested too early; confirm with blood test.
• Medical conditions – thyroid disorders, PCOS (often with weight gain, acne, hair loss).

See a doctor to identify the cause and get appropriate treatment if needed.
