Sure, but...: 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 birth control pills), hormonal imbalances, etc. Pregnancy is the common cause of a missed period, if sexually active. Home pregnancy tests are very accurate by 3 weeks after sex, or when a period is 1 week late.
