Can A Delayed Period Be A Sign Of Pregnancy?

I had my last normal period june 13th start date and ended june 18th completely. I had sex on June 19th and my boyfriend left came inside me. Wednesday night at 9:30 on the 22nd I took the next choice pill and the next morning at 6am I took the second pill. I’m worried that I missed the 72hr window to take the pill seeing that I tok it so late. On the 19th of June I started discharging dark dark and the next day it turned into what looked like a normal period, and It went off the next day. My question is when should I expect my next normal period? Ive been having really weird stomach feelings, tired, and nausea. My period was suppose to start 2days ago, but there is no sign of it, and my cycle is always 28days apart. Today makes it two days late, could I be pregnant? Ive also taken 3 pregnancy test and they all came back negative.

Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic. I am Dr Ramadevi wani. I will be answering your concerns today.
The first week of period cycle is safe period. Sexual intercourse during this time does not result in pregnancy. Since you had sex in the first week, it will not result in pregnancy. So do not worry.
Occasionally a period can be delayed and this is normal. There are several reasons for delayed period. Any physical or mental stress, shange in body weight can all delay the period. Wait for a week. If you do not start your period, consult doctor and take progesterone to start your period.
I hope this is helpful. If you have further concerns, do write to me.
