Hello,
It is true that you have been delayed for your periods for 5 days, but it can sometimes happen if you are going through a lot of stresses, amount of exercise you get or environment around you. You can still wait for 5 more days for your periods to occur naturally.
In addition, unprotected sexual intercourse carries some chances of pregnancy as we cannot be sure when you ovulated due to medicines you have taken for the last 2 moths to delay periods. So to confirm if you are pregnant or not, you can take a blood or urine pregnancy test.
If you are not pregnant and your periods get delayed for more than 10 days, then you should contact a gynecologist for physical examination and investigations regarding possible cause for the delay. Management can be started after the diagnosis.
I hope this answer helps you. Thank you for choosing HCM. Let me know if you have follow up questions.
Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
