Dear; you need to wait until your regular period is due. You can be pregnant and have some spotting which can be from implantation of the ovule , but need blood pregnancy test and Obgyn eval.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.

Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

Since you had unprotected intercourse in your fertile days and you are experiencing an unusual spotting ,pregnancy is possible.
Since it has been a week from the day ,when you were supposed to have your periods ,you should do a home pregnancy test.
If the test is negative ,you need to wait few days more and repeat the test.
If the test is still negative ,then you are not pregnant.If the test is positive ,you need to confirm it with a blood test and a pelvic ultrasound.

Hope it helps.
Please feel free to ask for any question you might have.

Kind regards,
Dr.Rovena Murati
