Hiya!
So I'm 22. I had sex on the 19th. The app I have showed my period should have started on the 23rd. It's the 26th now and it hasn't came yet. Theres been a few times I've had mild cramps or felt like it was about to start but then checked and it didn't. I'm also rather moody easily annoyed which is how I usually get with pms.
He had a condom on, so that was good, but I know they aren't 100% effective. But I'm not on birth control anymore I stopped after I got dumped in October. This is also the first time I've had sex since then and it was a spontaneous hookup with a friend of mine. So I spose all of these circumstances together are why I'm worrying.
I also know that worrying could in fact make it even later, so I'm trying not to. I just don't know enough about how this all works to know if anything is wrong or not.
I am pretty sure that it will come soon, but it is really stressful when I'm expecting to see blood each time I go to the bathroom and each time it's still not there. It's still only 3 days. But still.

Hello Anon
Thank you for writing.
Your odds of pregnancy are extremely low. You had sex less than a week before your period is due so your odds of ovulation - since your cycle is pretty regular - is little to none. You also used a condom. They are 98% effective.
Periods can be late for many reasons, including stress or a simple change in body chemistry. To give yourself full assurance, a pregnancy test would be accurate by now, if you feel like taking one. I'm sure your period will be along very soon.
