Hi,
I'm sorry you are worried, but you are doing a great job at having safer sex! Using a condom and the withdrawal method combined really lowers any chance of pregnancy...but nothing is 100%. That said, your period is most likely late (today is "day 37" of your cycle) due to stress, recent illness, new medication or other unknown factors. Many, many women have late, or even missed periods, with no underlying medical condition and without being pregnant.
If your period does not begin next week, you can always call your doctor to seek his/her medical advice. Please know that some women can miss a period for a cycle (or even two!) and it does not mean anything is medically wrong. However, if you are worried (and, we do not know anything about your medical/health history), it is a good idea to have a medical evaluation to rule out certain medical conditions.
I hope your period begins soon, as your chance of pregnancy is almost nonexistent with the use of condoms and withdrawal. Please let us know what you decide to do!
