Brief Answer:
Delayed periods

Detailed Answer:
Hello

I understand your concerns about delayed periods.

Your periods are delayed possibly due to one of following reasons:

1. Increased weight recently.

2. Any stress factors in family or profession.

3. Change of place or city of living.

Generally these factors are associated with delayed periods. This is not periods. Don't worry about pregnancy.

This spotting is your periods.
Let me know if you have any more questions.

Regards
