Hi,

Pregnancy chance is less as you had sex in time of period. No ovum is released during period time so no fertilization takes place. Pregnancy test will give positive result 7 days after missed period form normal expected period date (so it should be done 7 days after missed period to confirm pregnancy).

You can also confirm pregnancy by blood HCG test. Your period could be delayed by hormonal imbalance. So period may be delayed by 3 to 5 days from the normal expected period date. Period can be induced by Femilon tablet in absence of pregnancy if period will delay by more than 14 days. Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise.

Hope this may help you. Contact further if follow up needed.

Best regards,
Dr. Sagar
