What Causes Delay In Periods After Suffering From Bronchitis?

I had unprotected sex 6 weeks ago. 5 weeks ago I got my period then ended up becomming sick with bronchitis. My period is 11 days late if following a 28 day cycle. Is it possible for me to be pregnant even though i got my period last month or is it because of the stress from being sick?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi!
I can understand your concern.
Stress, emotional upset, infection like bronchitis, or hormonal disturbances can cause a delay in menstrual bleeding.

However, in the event of unprotected sex I would advise you to get a home pregnancy test done to rule out the possibility of pregnancy.

Hope this helps you.
A feed back is appreciated.
