Brief Answer:
Pregnancy test and Ultrasound advised

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
In case you have been sexually active after 23rd Nov also then there can be a risk of pregnancy so just do a Urine pregnancy test and rule that out first.
If it is negative then get an Ultrasound done to see for the cause of repeated delay in periods.
Recent weight gain, dieting or stress are the common causes of delay in periods.
In case you have any questions about it, I will be glad to answer.

Brief Answer:
No need to do pregnancy test

Detailed Answer:
Then no need to do pregnancy test.
Wait for your periods as it is just a stress related delay so will be fine once you tide over this phase.
Take deviry in case you don't get periods by fifteen days from now.
