Periods can get delayed by any number of days, from 30 days to 6 weeks. If next cycle starts from 28 +/- 7 days from the first date of last menstrual cycle then it is considered a normal cycle. Any delay more than it is considered abnormal.

I'm really worried about my 30-year-old daughter. She's having bad cramps, and we usually use BUSCOPAN tablets for relief. But she's currently on medication for high blood pressure and is also 3 months pregnant. Is it safe for her to keep using BUSCOPAN? If so, how often can she take it? I'm concerned about any risks for her and the baby.
