What Do You Suggest For Not Getting My Period After Unprotected Sex?
My girlfriend and I had unprotected sex a few weeks ago, and here period should be around now but she is saying that she is two days late. I keep trying to relax her as I know that stress is the main factor of late periods is there anything I can do to help her?

Hello,
If she has always been regular with her cycles, it is possible that she may have conceived. Of course, stress can delay a period, but, owing to the fact that you had an unprotected intercourse, pregnancy needs to be confirmed/excluded. Please get a HPT done with a fresh early morning sample of urine 3-7 days after the missed period and then see a specialist for further care if it is positive. If negative, you may wait for a week before seeking help. Hope you find this information helpful. Take care.
