Brief Answer:
Low chance. Do one home pregnancy test.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us. Followings are my comments:

1) You did unprotected sex in SAFE period and your chance of pregnancy is LOW. However, I suggest you to undergo one home pregnancy test to clear doubt.

2) Hormonal imbalance and mental stress are the main reasons of delayed period.

On NEGATIVE test, you may take Norethisterone pill to induce period. You will get period within 3 to 5 days of stopping them. Kindly, consult with your local doctor for complete prescription.

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

Wish your good health and practice safe sex in future.

Regards,
Dr S Patra
