Hi Sonia,
Do you have regular 28 day cycles? Since you have delayed cycles and also had unprotected sex, despite the fact that pregnancy test is negative, you still need to go for ultrasonogram of abdomen and pelvis to look for any signs of pregnancy or any changes in ovaries. Do you have any discharge from breasts? ECP is not 100% effective. Please don't worry but get an early diagnosis.

Best!!
