Question : My period got skipped. And generally this doesnt happen but there are occasions once or twice i missed my periods due to stress. And this i have my exams coming up but i also had unprotected sex, but it was a pull out thing. And I had unprotected sex on in aug, and i got my periods for Aug month but not for Sept yet. Do i need to do any tests or not worry much

Brief Answer:
Get your home urine pregnancy test.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting us about your health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concerns.
If you had a normal menstrual period with good flow in August following sex, then pregnancy is unlikely from that encounter.

However, since you've missed your September period, it's important to take a urine pregnancy test now to definitively rule out pregnancy
But to confirm whether you are pregnant or not you have to go for blood beta hcg testing for the same.
Your period can be missed due to hormonal imbalance caused by the same.
Hope found useful, feel free to ask more information.
Good luck
Regards
