Dr. Neeraj Agarwal
I’m an MBBS graduate with a deep commitment to providing meaningful, patient-first care. My clinical training has given me a solid understanding of how to assess and manage a wide variety of health conditions—both common and complex. But beyond just clinical skills, I’ve always believed that the heart of medicine lies in listening. That’s what I try to bring into every consultation: not just treatment, but genuine attention to the person in front of me. I have gained experience across general medicine, paediatrics, emergency care and preventive health. I have treated patients of different age groups and backgrounds, which has helped shaped a more flexible, to diagnosis and management. Whether someone comes with a new symptom or a routine check-up, I aim to deliver evidence-based treatment, explained clearly and tailored to the lifestyle. I’m especially focused on making care accessible and comfortable. Too often, patients feel rushed or confused when they leave a doctor’s office—I try to do the opposite. Taking time to explain options, risks, or even just what’s going on in simple terms is something I take seriously. Communication, I think, is just as important as any prescription. I actively stay updated with current medical guidelines and research, and I’ve been exploring areas of holistic care and preventive medicine too. The more we can do to catch problems early—or better yet, avoid them—the better the outcome for everyone. I’ve seen how small lifestyle changes, when supported properly, can make a big difference to long-term health. There’s still a lot to learn, of course. I think every good doctor keeps learning. But every patient I see teaches me something new, and I carry those lessons forward—with honesty, empathy, and the intent to keep improving.

Late or irregular periods can be caused by quite a few different factors. It’s not uncommon to experience some variation in your menstrual cycle, and a delay of a few days can happen occasionally without it necessarily indicating a serious issue. Stress is a common factor, as it can affect your hormonal balance and lead to delayed periods. Similarly, significant changes in weight, either gain or loss, intensive exercise, or diet changes can also influence your cycle. Hormonal imbalances such as thyroid dysfunction or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are other common causes of irregular cycles. However, since you’ve mentioned recent sexual activity, even with protection, it’s good to rule out pregnancy as a cause. The first step would be to take a home pregnancy test. These are usually reliable if taken after a missed period, but you may repeat a test after a few days to ensure accuracy, follow the instructions carefully. If pregnancy is not the cause and your irregular periods persist, consider consulting a healthcare provider. They might want to perform a physical examination and possibly some tests, like checking your hormone levels or an ultrasound, to get a better understanding of what’s going on. Also, tracking your cycle in detail with apps or calendars can help identify any patterns or trends, which can be helpful information for your doctor. In terms of lifestyle, try to maintain a balanced diet, manage stress with practices like meditation or yoga, and ensure regular sleep. These measures can sometimes be beneficial in regulating menstrual cycles. If you notice any other symptoms such as sudden weight changes, excessive hair growth, or severe acne really, it would be good to bring these up during a consultation, as they could point towards hormonal issues that may require management.
