A member asked:

My bf & i had sex and we used protection...my period is 2 days late...and i was sick for 4 days last week. is that why my period is late? i'm worried.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not likely: Most women are not on the spot every month for their entire reproductive lives and a late or early will happen now and then. However, if by protection you mean condoms, they are only 80% effective (2 out of 10 condom users get pregnant using them). So, check a pregnancy test anyway.
