Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Intercourse 4-5 days prior to periods is unlikely to result in pregnancy.
Moreover, if you have got your normal periods after intercourse, then pregnancy us highly unlikely.
Delayed periods can be due to pregnancy, stress or hormonal disturbances.
I will suggest you to get an urine pregnancy test done to confirm the diagnosis and get appropriate treatment timely.
If negative, you can get your hormonal profile done to confirm the diagnosis.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
