Hello,
There is no relation between doing a vaccine and period. The vaccination doesn't influence period or hormones.
May be you are having a hormone imbalance and since you had protected intercourse the risk of pregnancy is low. Anyway do a pregnancy home test at least 5 days of delayed period.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
