Are Delay In Periods, Nausea, Exhaustion And Cramps Signs Of Pregnancy?

hello, i hope you could tell me since im very anxious to know. i believe iam nine days late from my expected period.
Iam 24 yrs/old , my last cycle started on 15th of nov and ended on 21th..had unprotected intercourse during the 23rd,25th,27th,28th and 30th..these past week ive been feeling a lot of exhaustion and comes frequent head aches leading to nausea that causes me to sleep a lot.i have been being in large amounts and glad to have no pain when peeing(so probably not uti). i have also been experiencing cramps, it started out mild 3 days ago and is now gone.. ive read in a few articles that this might be pms.. but ive never experienced this before... im planning to take a PT, but my elder sister told me to wait until im 14 days late.. could i be pregnant? or you would aswell suggest for me to wait till im 14 days late?

Hi dear and thanks for your query.

If you have had unprotected intercourse and your periods are delay for more than 9 days ,you should have a pregnancy test done .
Pregnancy test at home is accurate one week after the expected periods not 14 days .
It can be positive and 14 after an unprotected intercourse.
Hence take a pregnancy test done at your home and contact with a doctor.

All the best
