General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello welcome to the health care magic

Your period is delayed and you had history of unprotected intercourse at around ovulation time.

Hence pregnancy should be ruled out by urine hcg card test.
Test done one week after delayed period.

If you want to rule out pregnancy still early than blood hcg test can be done
. Hope this solves your concern

Take care
