Late period ? : If your periods have been regular (24-32 days apart) , and "not sexually active" means only vaginal intercourse or even external exposure to semen has not occurred, your period may be "late" due to delays in ovulation (stress, anxiety, etc.) which will delay onset of bleeding. If pregnancy is possible, wait another week and obtain a serum HCG test to be certain.
