Does A Missed Period After Unprotected Sex Always Mean Pregnancy?
Hey, I received my last monthly periods in may starting the 5th. I used protection until the 27th when I had unprotected sex. My periods have missed this month since the 5th. I did a pregnancy test 8th and it was negative but I feel Crumbs. Can it be that I am pregnancy?

Hello,
Missing periods is most often due to pregnancy. However, delayed or missed periods can occur due to various causes. I suggest you to get urine pregnancy test again 10-14 days after intercourse. In case the urine pregnancy test is still negative and periods do not resume then you need to consult a gynecologist.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
