Welcome to the EmpowHER community. Thank you for reaching out to us with your question about your girlfriend's late period.
Without having unprotected intercourse, it is not likely that she is pregnant.
The menstrual cycle is regulated by a precise balance of hormones. Any upset in the balance will cause a delay or even missed period. In addition to pregnancy, prolonged periods of high stress, a major increase in physical exercise, a big weight gain or weight loss, being ill with the flu and traveling through time zones can cause a delay.
Have her periods always been regular? Has any thing changed in her life since her last normal period?
There is no need to be fearful. Let's try to find the answer.
