Hi, Dr Purushottam Neurgaonkar here. I welcome you to HCM VIRTUAL CLINIC. I Have gone through your question, and I think I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

Please do not worry. As you said, you didn't have penetrative sex , there are no chances of getting pregnant. Unless sperms or semen is spilled in and around the vagina, pregnancy is not possible.

As your periods are not regular, delay in the periods can be due to hormonal changes. If you have any doubts, please get mornings first sample of urine tested for pregnancy.

I will suggest you to get proper sex counselling done.

I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks
