Brief Answer:
Can be due to stress.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
If you have used a protection while having sex then there is no need to worry about pregnancy. The delay in periods can be due to stress and anxiety. You can do a urine test to confirm the same. It is best to wait for a week more and let the periods start on their own.
In case the periods are still delayed then consult your gynecologist and get proper hormonal pills prescribed for a withdrawal bleeding.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
