Hi scarletoak and thanks for bringing your concerns to the EmpowHER community.
It can be very stressful when periods are late and pretty confusing too. Changes in timing, flow, duration and other factors are very common, especially for women in their teens and 20's.
Please read the article and decide if you need to see your doctor to get more answers about your delayed period or if you are comfortable waiting it out for another week or so.
You're smart to know your cycle and ask questions when it's off track. Hope this has helped and let us know if we can help further.
