Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Drinking lemon water doesn't cause a delay in periods. If you are sexually active, I would suggest you to go for a pregnancy test. Delayed periods can also be because of hormonal imbalance, stress, change in physical activity, etc. I would suggest you to go for an ultrasound and consult your gynecologist.

I hope my answer was helpful.

Thank you!
