Why My Periods Are Delaying After An Unprotected Sex?

I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend last month. My last period was 25th april, and I usually have them every 32 days. So I am late but test was negative. Could I still be pregnant. Iv also had bad cramping and sleeping a lot. Would like to just get a doctors opinion. Thanks.

Hi,

Mostly unprotected sex with delayed period suggests pregnancy. To be confirmed by home pregnancy test after 8 days delay in periods. If you had done it earlier, please repeat it. Negative test suggests hormonal imbalance. This can be managed by hormonal course. Please consult a gynecologist for suitable dose.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
