Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Since you had intercourse towards the end of your periods date, the chances for you to become pregnant is remote. Delay in periods can happen due to psychological factors like stress and anxiety. Hence, relax and stop worrying about what has happened. Normal menstrual cycle happens by about 28 with +/- 5 days. Kindly wait for your periods to happen. If the delay is more than 10 days, you would require medical attention. You need to consult Gynecologist for clinical evaluation and appropriate management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
