It is possible that yoga may delay periods, but there is no definitive scientific evidence to support this claim.
There are a number of potential reasons why yoga may delay periods. For example, stress relief and better sleep are two potential benefits of yoga that could lead to delayed periods. Additionally, certain yoga poses may help to increase blood flow to the pelvic region, which could promote menstruation. However, more research is needed to determine whether or not yoga actually delays periods.
