my last period date was 23 september. not regular, every month two or three days late.
Brief Answer:
wait for a week more
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
You have not answered to all my questions. However, thanks for mentioning the last period date.
I would suggest you to wait for a week more to get your periods. If you still do not get it, then you may do a urine pregnancy test at home to check for pregnancy.
If not pregnancy, then other causes like cystic ovaries, thyroid dysfunction, stress needs to be ruled out.
I wish you could also reply to my other queries along with the mention of the date of having sexual intercourse.
Regards,

20 october sexual intercourse date.
Brief Answer:
pregnancy unlikely
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
If your periods are regular i.e. if you have your periods monthly once, then it is highly unlikely for you to be pregnant. This is because you had sexual intercourse on 20th October 2013, and you are most likely to be unfertile at this day.
So, please relax. Wait for a week more. You will get your periods most likely in next one week.
Take care!
