Brief Answer:
Pregnancy is not likely.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The first week of January was not her fertile period. Since you had a protected sex, the chances of pregnancy are remote. The delay in periods can be due to the antibiotics and steroids or due to stress and anxiety.
It is best to get a urine test done and if it is negative then wait for a week more for the periods to start on their own.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
