Yes. A steroid blockade (most often in the form of Diprophos), as the name suggests, contains corticosteroids, which can affect the functioning of the endocrine system. The use of Diprophos can disrupt the hormonal balance of the body, which can potentially result in a delay or changes in the regularity of the menstrual cycle. Therefore, there is a possibility that the cause of late menstruation is precisely a steroid blockade. Factors such as stress, a change in the weather or a change in diet can also contribute to delaying bleeding, keep this in mind.
The availability of preparations in pharmacies in Polish can be examined here:
