Female | 21

If you had protected sex and have missed your period, there could be many reasons for a missed period other than pregnancy. Stress, changes in weight, illness, hormonal imbalances, and various medical conditions can all affect your menstrual cycle. Please get a test done to confirm about pregnancy.
