Periods delayed
I am TTC..in the last few months I have put on a few extra kilos. And suddenly I see my period length has drastically increased to 40 days.
I have started ovulating also very late around day 26. I don't have PCOS n all my tests are normal. My periods were always regular ranging from 29 to 32 days.
My BMI is now 28.3
Can being overweight be the reason for my delayed period? Please help.
