Hello dear
Understand your concern
Abortion not affect the pregnancy /fertility as you did once only. Sometime pregnancy test give false negative result, do pregnancy test again after 2-3 days. Better to do blood hcg and ultrasonography to confirm the pregnancy.
Other cause of delayed period are excessive stress, change in life style and dietary habit, thyroid abnormality, hormonal imbalance, ovarian dysfunction/PCOS, high prolactin etc. If pregnancy is not there you should rule out above cause by consulting the gynecologist after following investigations: full hormone profile, ovarian follicle study,endometrial biopsy.
Meanwhile avoid stress, do exercise like stretching, yoga and relaxation exercise, take healthy diet, take fruits like papaya, orange and pine apple.
Hope this may help you
Thanks and regards
