Hello ma'am, folic acid does not affect the length of your menstrual cycle.
What is the usual length of your cycle? Is it always regular?

i have a regular cycle of 31/32 days, and now I am 7 days late, but the blood test and urine test are negative

A delay can occur following an episode of illness or vaccination, stress, fatigue, change of schedule or even without any detectable reason. I invite you to do a test every 3 days until you get a positive result or until your period starts. If the delay reaches twice your cycle, you should consult a doctor as a precaution.
I will remain available if you have any further questions!
