Menstruation Cycle

Hi, I'm 17 years old, I'm a virgin. However, I had a last menstrual period in the middle of May. I still did not get the next period. I had a pain in the uterus from the last period, but only every few days and like always before the start of the period. Breast pain also occurs every few days but again not as much as ever before menstruation. What could be the reason for the delay over a monthly period? I have always had a problem with a period from 15 years but there was no gap greater than 3 to 4 weeks. Looking forward to your help thank you

It may be worth seeing your doctor for a blood test to check your hormone levels and to see if you have anaemia.

If you are anaemic, this can mess up periods as well as a hormone imbalance.

Make sure you eat a healthy well balanced diet with plenty of fresh veg and fresh fruit.  Drink plenty of water, 2-3 litres per day is recommended.  
Eat wholemeal foods and cut out refined foods and junk food that includes fizzy drinks and alcohol.

The symptoms you describe are known as Premenstrual Tension (PMT) sometimes called Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS).  You may find Evening Primrose capsules helpful.

Best wishes.
