High stress levels can cause a late period. During periods of stress, the body produces more of the hormone called cortisol. In response, certain bodily functions considered non essential shut down. The menstrual cycle is one.
What exactly do you mean by " a bit more sexually active now"?
Pregnancy is possible if you have engaged in unprotected sexual intercourse- with penetration and ejaculation.
Just try to relax. If you do not get a period this month, and have been sexually active, take a home pregnancy test. For the most accurate result, test in the morning and use the first urine when you wake up.
