Hello and welcome,
The chances of pregnancy are very high after repeated unprotected sex. Since you have been having unprotected sex the commonest reason for absent period may be pregnancy. Get a pregnancy test done a week later after the missed period using the first morning urine sample to rule it out.

If the test is negative, other causes like hormonal imbalances, ovarian cysts, very severe exercise and stress may also delay periods. wait for a few more days as most hormonal imbalances are mild and temporary and may get corrected spontaneously. If there are still no periods, you will need to see a doctor.
I hope I have answered your question.
Thanks for using HCM.
Have a good day.
