Hello dear,
I understand your concern.

In my opinion once you get the period the pregnancy is ruled out unless you had unprotected intercourse after the periods.

As per your information the unprotected intercourse was not done after the periods in April.

So there is no chance of pregnancy.

The period can be delayed due to stress,poor diet etc.

Stress regarding the thought of pregnancy causes hormonal imbalance and delay the period.

So relax.Avoid stress.

Usually the pregnancy test is positive a week after missed period.

So as a benefit of doubt you can consider doing a urine pregnancy test.

But as per your information there is no chance of pregnancy.

Hope this helps.
Best regards....Dr.Srilatha
