HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Ovaa shield contains nutritional supplements acetylcysteine and also astaxanthin.
Neither of these should cause a delay in the periods.
It is possible that your PCOS is the reason for your period delay, this is associated with irregular or delayed periods.
If you wish to make sure the delay is not due to pregnancy then you should consider a repeat pregnancy test in a few days.
I hope this helps
