Brief Answer:
Do one home pregnancy test and follow advice.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for additional information.

1) You had SAFE sex according to last period date and chance pregnancy is very much rare or negligible. However, I suggest you to undergo one home pregnancy test to clear confusion.

2) Late period may be due to hormonal imbalance (mostly effect of Unwanted 72 pill), irregular eating habit, stress/anxiety, ovarian cyst, thyroid problem, psychological factors, over weight or extreme weight loss etc.

3) On NEGATIVE test, I can suggest Norethisterone pill for 5 days twice daily to induce period. You will get your period within 5-7 days after stopping medicine.

Hope, I have answered your query. Wish your good health and take care yourself.
