Hello dear user!
Welcome to HCM

I don't think your delayed period is due to pregnancy.
Have you done any pregnancy test until now?

If you had regular periods after you had sex first time, it means you haven't had the implantation of the egg. After that if you haven't had sexual intercourse i think you haven't to be worried about. Periods may delay some days for different causes, like hormonal levels, stress, physical activity etc.

Just wait some days more and I'm sure you will have the menstruation.
If it delays to much have a pregnancy test because there are very rare cases, when you are pregnant despite the menstruation come regularly.

I wish you all the best!
Best regards!
