Hello,
Your symptoms may be indicative of side effects of too much diet control. Anemia often affects menstrual cycle. Take food rich in iron, calcium and protein. You can also take supplements. You are on pills, sometimes hormonal imbalance can also cause such symptoms. You have not mentioned if you had unprotected sex. In case you had unprotected sex then you should get a pregnancy test done with the first morning mid stream urine to stay on the safer side.
Get clinically examined by an OBGYN. Get per vaginal check up done to detect bulky uterus. Get USG (Uterus with fallopian tubes) done to confirm pregnancy and to detect ectopic pregnancy. You will be manage and treated accordingly, whether married or unmarried.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
