Hi
Panadol does not interfere with menstrual cycles. It has no action on it.
The clotted blood you have mentioned is premenstrual spotting. In all probability you shouls be starting the flow in 3-4 days time. There is no reason to worry. Occasionally a period can get delayed.
i hope I have answered to your satisfaction
