Hi,
If you have never had this sort of cycle disturbance earlier, if you have been sexually active throughout without any protection, please suspect pregnancy and to clarify, get a trans-vaginal sonogram and also a blood test to assess the serum beta-hCG titres. Another possibility is a disturbed hormonal milieu and this could be caused by sudden weight changes, stress, infections, use of certain medications etc. This can be detected through a complete hormone profile after clinical evaluation and sonogram. Hope this helps.
