For example, if your cycle is typically 30 days long but extends to 40 days one month, your period is delayed.<\/span><\/p>\n Imagine a period as a train you\u2019re waiting for at a station. While it might occasionally arrive late due to unexpected delays, consistent lateness might signal a problem with the train schedule.
