Hello,
Though you had the intercourse during your fertile days or ovulatory days, presuming that you have regular 28-30 day cycles, since you had protected intercourse, you are relatively safe. Stress can also cause menstrual irregularities by delaying or advancing a period. Please get a HPT with a fresh early morning sample of urine now or go for an assessment of the serum beta-hCG titres for a better clarification. You can also see a specialist for a clinical evaluation and a trans-vaginal sonogram for clarification on this issue. Hope this helps.
