Some thoughts...: In a woman with regular periods, some causes of a late period include: excessive weight loss or gain, increased exercising, emotional stress, having an illness, traveling, medicines (like hormone pills), hormonal imbalances, etc… Seeing a doctor is a good idea if symptoms are persistent, recurring, or worrisome. Pregnancy is a cause of a missed period, but preg. tests are accurate 3 wk after sex.

Agree with Dr. K: You may wish to get a blood test for HCG and preferably see your doctor for an ultrasound examination. Visit this site for info: http://www.nichd.nih.gov/health/topics/menstruation/conditioninfo/Pages/causes.aspx
