Late menses: You should rule out pregnancy first, but beyond that you may have not ovulated this cycle and this is breakthrough bleeding precipitated by sex. During female orgasm the uterus contracts several times and can cause endometrial tissue and blood to be expelled. Cervical inflammation can also cause bleeding associate with sex, but doesn't cause a late period.

Irregular periods : Irregular periods are one of the most common problems obgyns treat. If this is one time problem it usually resolves on its own. If this is a recurring problem you should be evaluated. Infections & hormonal changes can cause spotting. If there is a concern for pregnancy then do a home pregnancy test .
