Hello dear
Understand your concern
As you did protected intercourse with the condoms chance of pregnancy is less. Missed period is cardinal sigh of pregnancy. But as you told your period is irregular. You can wait for period to come.
Pregnancy test should be done 8-10 days after missed period with fresh morning urine sample. So if you did before this, it will give negative result.
You can also go for USG and Blood HCG level for accurate confirmation of pregnancy.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
