Could Masturbation Have Caused Some Damage Leading To Delayed Periods?

I'm 17, a virgjn and, my period is pretty much always regular. Im now ten days late for my period. Seven days ago, I did Mastrubate with a hair brush handle ( it was clean and everything) but about ten minutes afterward I got really light headed, nauseous, shaky, I got the chills, and a really intense pain down there. It went away after a half an hour or so, and the pain completely disappeared after a day, but I'm now concerned that maybe I did something that stopped my period? (These past few days I feel like I'm getting my period but never do, achy breasts, a little cramping, and bloating.)

Hello ma'am and welcome.

Such a response is at times possible. But I would like to start by requesting you to be careful while inserting inanimate objects into your vagina as they can result in common infections of the genitourinary system.

A hormonal imbalance could be the most likely cause for your presentation, as masturbation does not really result in a delay. If this is the first time you have indulged in such an activity then this could be the cause. Please visit your doctor if your period is delayed for more than 7-10 days.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
