Unlikely: It is unlikely that you are pregnant if you have never had sexual intercourse. A missed period can be caused by many things such as stress, dieting, training for a marathon, or just a random month when you didn't ovulate.

No: WIthout any contact that would have allowed semen (sperm) to enter your vagina, it is impossible to get pregnant. Delayed menses in a woman who is not sexually active is due to fluctuation in hormone levels. These can be affected by stress, changes in sleep, nutrition, and exercise. A urine pregnancy test should be done if you have engaged in any sexual activities with a male.
