Hi, i have gone through your question. Delay in periods can be due to several causes like stress, pregnancy, hormonal imbalance, thyroid disorders, prolactin disorders and in women nearing menopause. Since you have only one delayed period, I would suggest you to wait for at least 2-3 periods, see the pattern of periods and stop all medications (naturagest in your case). Heat in the inner side of body and weakness may be due to progesterone intake (naturagest) or may be the signs that you are reaching menopause.
Start on these changes and get back to me in 3-4 months.
Wishing you good health.
