Could I be pregnant if period is late?

I last had sexual intercourse on the 20th of october and I was supposed to get my period on the 22nd to 25th of October according to my period tracker and today is the 28th what are the chances that I may be pregnant? Because I've been feeling nauseous, had a running stomach, had constipation and been feeling sleepy and frown for no reason. So since it's just been a week after I last had intercourse could I be pregnant or my period is still coming?

While these symptoms could stem from various factors like stress, hormonal changes, or potential pregnancy, stress is often a common cause. Since it's only been a week since your last intercourse, it might be too soon to confirm a pregnancy. Sometimes, the body can mimic pregnancy symptoms for other reasons. I suggest that if your period doesn’t arrive in a few days, consider taking a home pregnancy test for peace of mind. Also, please remember to dispose of any test waste properly. If your symptoms worsen, it’s always best to consult a gynecologist for further assistance.

Hello! I am a virgin and i have had my period for 2 years but i’ve been to scared to put a tampon in so i always use pads. But when i try to put a tampon in it kind of burns or hurts when i stick it up? Is this something to be worried about?

Pain during tampon insertion may indicate vaginal dryness or irritation that requires a consultation with an expert. This needs to be addressed so that you can manage your period cycle comfortably.

I am a 23 year old female. I had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend and took the morning after pill three times in one month. We had sexual intercourse twice in a span of two weeks and I took the morning after pill both times. Then I got my period so we stopped, when I came off we had sexual intercourse again and I took the morning after pill, then a few days later got heavy bleeding like a period for 6-7 days. Since then we haven’t had any sexual intercourse. This was last month. This month I haven’t gotten my period yet. It’s delayed. Is it because the morning after pills alters hormones? Or am I pregnant?

Since you took the morning after pill multiple times within a month may have altered your menstrual cycle and caused a delay in your period. But there is still a possibility of pregnancy even if you have taken the morning after pill. Because emergency contraception is not 100% effective in preventing pregnancy, and repeated use of the pill within a short period of time may decrease its effectiveness.
