HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
There are different possible causes for delayed period.
Pregnancy would have to ruled out since you are sexually active. Pregnancy tests are usually accurate once done 11 to 14 days after possible conception. Your negative result is likely accurate.
The other causes of delayed period are: (1) physical stress or illness
(2)emotional stress
(3)inadequate diet
(4)abnormal levels of thyroid hormone
(5)high levels of prolactin hormone
(6)polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)
If your doctor confirms that you are not pregnant, he or she may suggest blood tests and imaging to determine any other possible causes for the irregular period.
I hope this helps
