HI
Thanks for posting your query.
Occasionally some delay is periods is normal and there need not be any problems in the body . This happens due to hormonal changes that occurs as a result of stress , anxiety or even sometimes due to some food .
But if you had an unprotected sex then pregnancy has to be considered first. Pregnancy test will come positive after 2-3 weeks of conception ( that is 14th day of your cycle ) If taken early it may show false negative.
My advise to you is to wait for a week more and if periods doesn't occur get Serum Beta HCG test done ( more confirmatory blood test for pregnancy ).
Hope this information was useful to you. Any clarifications feel free to ask .
Regards.
