Hi
Thanks for your query.
I appreciate your concern for the possibility of delayed periods despite of having safe (well protected) sex.

Since the fact that condom did not show any holes or perforations on the "home patency test" after the "pull out" technique, the chances of pregnancy are almost zero if his pre ejaculatory fluids did not enter into the vagina prior to use of the condom. The pre ejaculatory fluids contain sufficient amount of sperms to cause fertilization of the egg and hence the pregnancy.
Only a pregnancy test done on early morning urine sample test can rule out this rare possibility of pregnancy.

Other wise delayed period can be due to stress, hormonal imbalance, etc.
You need to consult a gynecologist for the delayed periods.

Hope this answers your query.
