Hi, A couple of weeks ago my boyfriend and I had protected sex. The condom did not break or slip off. I am now 5 days late for my period. I have been having all the other symptoms I get before I am due (sore breasts, moodiness) but no period. I have also just finished an exam block at uni. I just need some reassurance that it wont be a pregnancy?
Hello, Thanks for letting us know your health concern. Though you had the intercourse during the fertile period, your chances of conception are low since the act was protected. Delayed cycle can be due to several causes like stress, sudden weight changes, infections etc. Please get further help if you do not receive your period in the next couple of days. You can get a HPT now to exclude pregnancy. Hope this helps.
