General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,
Thank you for your query.
Yes I believe that it could be the postinor that is delaying the period as you had intercourse within a week of her expected period.
However, if you had intercourse earlier, during her ovulation or fertile time, it could be pregnancy. Please take a home pregnancy test to check.
If negative, wait for 10 days. If still no period, then she need to repeat the pregnancy test and see her doctor with the results.

Her period can get delayed due to various reasons for upto 2 weeks. This is OK if it is occasional, else she needs to check for hormone imbalances.
Hope this helps. Wish you both good health
