Hi ....Can understand your concern...As per your query about delay in periods while on birthcontrol pills can be a side effect which usually occurs due to prolong use ..You can wait few more days because delay can also be due more body stress as you are exercising more and sudden weight loss can cause delay in periods..Take a balanced healthy diet and avoid stress..Consut a gynaecologist for proper examination and ultrasound to rule out the cause..I hope the informationhelpsyou.Takecare.
