Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Although the chances of pregnancy are remote on having sex on day 4 of periods still it is best to rule pregnancy first of all by doing a urine for pregnancy test.

The other reasons of delayed periods with weight gain may be hormonal imbalance, emotional upset, anxiety, stress, or other medical conditions that affect the ovaries, uterus, hypothalamus, or pituitary gland. Hypothyroidism, post pill amennorhea , polycystic ovarian syndrome or less frequently a pituitary tumor causing high prolactin levels or a hypothalamic disease are other causes that may be the cause here after the pregnancy is ruled out.
Please visit your gynecologist to undergo physical check up and also to undergo relevant investigations required in your case to find out the cause so that treatment can be given accordingly.
The smelly yellowish discharge from vagina is suggestive of a vaginal infection and needs antibiotic treatment after vaginal swab culture.

Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
