Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I had gone through your question I can understand your concern.
At this age there is hormonal fluctuations which is most important cause of delayed periods. But there can be other causes like Poly cystic ovarian disease too.
If you had sex between 15to 20th July then there are chances of pregnancy too.

Sone times the condom may have manufacturer defect or is punctured during sexual act. This can also be the cause of delayed periods.

You need to get a home pregnancy kit and do a test or visit a LAB for the same reason.
Hope the answer to you question, if you may feel further need of any opinion, wrote to us we will be happy to help.


Regards
Dr Muzaffer.
