What Causes Irregularities In Menstruation?

Hi, i am 23 years old and have always had a regular period. I recently had unprotected sex and I got my period 2 weeks later but it has now been going for 9 days. This has never happened before. My period started normally but is now very light with some little clots. Could I be pregnant?

Hello dear,I.understand your concern.In my opinion the delayed period with prolonged bleeding definitely needs to rule out pregnancy.I suggest you to do a urine pregnancy test.If the test is positive the bleeding can be considered as miscarriage.If negative the bleeding might be due to some hormonal imbalance.Avoid stress.Relax.Consider doing a urine pregnancy test.Whatever may be the result consult gynaecologist.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
