Dear Kelly,

To rule out pregnancy you conduct a pregnancy test at home for a quick assessment. Besides pain in your power back do have any other symptoms such as burning sensation during urination ? You need to look out for other symptoms such as itching, vaginal discharge as you had unprocted sex.

If none of the above occur positive then u have a delayed period and the lower abdominal pain could be related to the menstruation.

Do check with your gynaecologists if your periods are delayed more than a week for a specialist opinion.
