Hi,
Today, it's 34 days since my last period. They're usually anywhere from 27-34d. I get fairly noticable PMS (breasts hurt, acne) about a week before my period starts. My breasts only started hurting 2-3 days ago and not as badly as usual & they're still a bit tender (but not sore) and it's rare that my period takes this long to come. My cervical mucous was almost non-existent for the past 3 or so days, but now there is a bit and I've been mildly cramp-y for a day or so.
My boyfriend and I had sex on the 20th of April, day 10 of my cycle - so by rhythm method, I should have been fine (I think I only ovulated several days later - I get ovulatory bleeding) and he pulled out way before he was finished.
I'm also on Venlafaxine (6wks - switched from Escitalopram) & lamotrigine for depression; Loratidine (about 2 weeks) for allergies & had a 5d course of amoxycillin about 2wks ago for a slight sinus infection.
Could it be because of meds/anything else or is it likely that I'm pregnant?

Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum,
Your periods can get delayed due to stress of infection. However, chances of pregnancy cannot be ruled out completely due to your unprotected intercourse on 10th days of your cycle. You are closer to your ovulation day at that time. Sperms once released inside (or if present in pre-cum/pre-ejaculatory fluid) can stay alive inside of you for 3-4 days. And egg once released, can stay alive for 6-7 days. If you have had an early ovulation in your cycle, chances of pregnancy are present. Wait and watch for your periods. Look out for development of any new symptoms suggestive of early pregnancy. Visit your doctor/gynecologist for further evaluation and assistance if you do not get your periods.
Take care.
