Hello,
To know whether you the delay periods is due to pregnancy, I would suggest you take a urine pregnancy test and if the results come negative then wait for a week or two.
If the situation remains same then visit a gynaecologist regarding the same. Sometimes due to stress, there is a delay in periods is seen so don’t panic and visit a doctor if the periods' delays for more than 2 weeks of your regular timing.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
