Does Taking Antibiotics Delay Periods?

my period is 5 days late, I was wondering if its anything to do with a new antibiotic which I am taking called oxytetraciline? I was given it because I was getting bad acne on my chin area persistently for about 10 months now, which I was sure was due to a hormone imbalance but my doctor said I wouldn t have that and prescribed me those. Now I am 5 days late I am also worrying that the whole reason of this is that i actually do have an underlying hormone problem.
