If I had protected sex on my period over a month ago and still haven't gotten my period, will I be okay?

With this specific question, we cannot give a specific answer to your situation as there are a lot of variables, but we will answer as best we can! First, there are a lot of reasons your period may be delayed, especially if you are not on a birth control method (e.g., the pill) that makes your periods regular. Even stress or heavy exercise can affect your period. You know your body best and how long your cycle normally is, so use this as a comparison!


Having sex on your period will NOT prevent pregnancy. You can still get pregnant if you have unprotected sex on your period! However, if you use protection (e.g., a condom), the risk of pregnancy is much lower.


If you missed a period and are concerned about potential pregnancy, you may want to take a pregnancy test to check. You can order free pregnancy tests at our store, violetproject.org/store, or pick them up in your local pharmacy. If you are concerned about pregnancy, having irregular periods, or any other issues regarding your cycle, you may want to speak with a doctor so they can help you find the cause and prescribe anything if needed.


For specific, personal situations, it is best to contact (text/call/email, 443-267-7765, info@violetproject.org) the Violet staff to talk it through. If you are having severe symptoms or a time-sensitive question, it is best to go directly to a doctor.
