Supplement intake affect my period

I’m single woman in my late 20s. I take fish oil + primrose oil Blackmore’s supplement for the first time before. But my period came late for 2 weeks so I decided to stop. Still, my period came almost 2 weeks later. So almost a month my period didn’t come. My next period is also a bit weird. My pms is a bit severe than usual for like 3 days but my period still didn’t come. After i did some stomach exercise and consume coke only did the period came. My next period also the same. Is this normal ? Should i continue to take this supplement as I need supplement for my dry and sensitive skin and eczema.
