What Causes A Delayed Menstrual Period?

Hello, I am a 31 yr old smoker and started taking Alysena 28 on August 29 which was also the first day of my period. I was instructed by a pharmacist to start the pills the first day of my period. My period ended the 6th of September. My next period wasn t due till September 26 2014. I had spotting or breakthrough bleeding between September 21 - 23. I have had unprotected sex with my husband from September 17 - 27 except for the days i was spotting. It is now September 29 and my period hasn t come as yet. Is their something wrong with me hormonaly, could i be possibly pregnant, could it be cause by stress or is this normal and im panicking for no reason?
