Hello
Welcome to HCM
After having sex ,since she got her periods,no need to worry.
But if you had sex again after periods,there are chances of her becoming pregnant.Delay in the periods doesn't always indicate pregnancy.It can be due to various reasons like stress,emotions,hormonal imbalance or sleep irregularities.
Best way to confirm her pregnancy is by urine pregnancy test that is easily available.If you are in doubt still,You can go for ultrasound scanning.
Hope you are happy with the answer.
Thank you
