Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

Period may be normally delayed in some ladies.
It may be delayed even in those ladies who have normal periods.
But you should confirm your pregnancy also,though chances are less as you had sex before 5 days of expected period.But this period is also not 100 % safe.

You should repeat UPT.It may be false negative in early days of pregnancy due to less HCG level.
However USG of pelvis is the investigation of choice for confirmation of pregnancy.
Hope I have answered your query.

Take Care
