Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, you really don't need to worry.
Skipped period does not necessarily indicate pregnancy. Sometimes hormonal, emotional, physical and even environmental factors play a role in regulating menstrual cycle.
If you think that you are pregnant, and you missed your period, you must do the test at least 21-28 days after the previous unprotected sexual encounter.
Remember, Stress is one major cause of menstrual abnormalities.
Take care,
Regards
