Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Delayed periods can be either due to pregnancy OR rarely due to effect of decapeptyl. You can do home pregnancy test to confirm/rule out pregnancy. If pregnancy test is positive, stop decapeptyl & consult your doctor. If test is negative, you can weight for 2 more days for periods to start before consulting doctor.
Wish you good health.
