General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
If you had protected intercourse earlier and had periods after that during previous occasion, then it says you were not pregnant. After periods, if you did not have intercourse, then the delay in getting periods this time is unlikely due to pregnancy.
However, to confirm about it, kindly get a urine pregnancy test done. In case it is negative, you can relax and wait till your periods arrive as it might have been delayed due to stress or some hormonal changes.
If the delay continues for more than 2 weeks, you need to seek medical attention to look for the cause and to be treated accordingly by consulting Gynecologist.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
