I missed my period after sex

Pregnancy test: Women miss menstrual periods or get them late for lots of reasons. A simple home pregnancy test is easy and reliable. The urine pregnancy test may not show positive until 1-2 weeks after the sexual activity. One abnormal cycle is not too worrisome, if the irregularity continues, you may want to see a gynecologist or nurse practitioner.

Well,....: Pregnancy is certainly the most common reason for a missed period when sexually active. An anovulatory cycle (your ovary just does not release an egg that month), thyroid conditions, rapid weight fluctuations, extreme exercise, stress, etc. Are all other causes that may be possible. If you are having sex unprotected, check pregnancy tests, otherwise if you miss your next one too, see dr. For eval.
