Welcome to the EmpowHER community. Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern about a late period and possibly being pregnant.
Without sexual intercourse, that is penetration of the penis in the vagina and ejaculation of semen, there is little to no chance for becoming pregnant. The chance is increased when the woman is most fertile, which is about five days before ovulation and on the day of ovulation.
Prolonged or high stress can cause a delay in the start of a period. Taking a home pregnancy test and seeing the result may put your mind at ease.
