Stress and illness, like a sinus infection, can cause a delay in the start of your period. However, condoms are about 98% effective in preventing pregnancy. Of every 100 women whose partners use the pull out method, four will become pregnant each year if they always do it correctly. Men who use the pull out method must be able to know when they are reaching the point of sexual excitement when ejaculation can no longer be stopped or postponed.
If your period doesn't start within the next week, take a home pregnancy test. This will eliminate any unnecessary concerns.
