Delayed Period

Hi,
I'm a 24-yr-old and my period is delayed.

When it comes to my cycle, mine is not precisely 28-day cycle. Sometimes it is 28 days sometimes it took 33 days.
I have a boyfriend and have had sex, but he always uses condoms and never had ejaculation inside. So we are thinking that it's unlikely to be a pregnancy.
However, today is my 32th day of my cycle and I began to worry, so did my boyfriend. We did have sex on a week that my ovulation was supposed to happen(of course used condom and it did not break)
In fact, I am going to have a home pregnancy test tonight! But I just wanted to know what other possibilities are,

Thank you for reading!

It could just be stress, maybe you didnt ovulate, maybe your cyles are changing. It could be lots, doesn't sound like pregnancy, but ya never know!

Good luck.

Don't take the test tonight ... wait until tomorrow morning. The reliability of the results are much stronger if you use your first urine of the day since it has been in your system so much longer. Good luck!

I took the test this morning and it was negative. I am going to try one more time in a few days later but it doesn't look like it.
Thank you for your comments!
