Brief Answer:
Get urine pregnancy test done

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
You can get a urine pregnancy test to rule out any pregnancy.
Regular use of condom is good enough method for contraception.
Stress may be the cause of delayed period or hormonal imbalance.
Persistent pain requires ultrasound evaluation too.
Hope you found the answer helpful.

Ok thanks. I'm just wondering since I gave birth my periods have been 28 day cycle then one day it was 34 days and since 34 days for like 4 months now it's been 23-24 days. Maybe I am pregnant or maybe it's just a delayed period.

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
It can be either of the two.
A urine pregnancy test will confirm the diagnosis.
