Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns.

Occasionally a period can be delayed and it is normal. Since you have had sex during the ovulation period there is a possibility of pregnancy. There are several other reasons for delayed periods. Even stress either mental or physical can delay the period.

In order to allay your anxiety I suggest that you get your pregnancy test done if you don't start your mensus in 3-4 days time. If it is negative, discuss with your doctor and take progesterone pills to start your period.

I hope this is helpful.
If you have further concerns, I will be happy to answer.
