I'm really worried and need some advice. I'm 20 years old and usually my period starts between the 20th and 25th of each month. This time, I had unprotected sex on the 20th of March and took an Unwanted 72 pill on the 21st, but my period still hasn't started, and it's already April 8th. I'm really stressed out about the possibility of being pregnant because I don't think I can handle a pregnancy right now, and I definitely can't tell my parents. Should I take a pregnancy test? And if it turns out I'm pregnant, what options would be available to me?

My doctor suggested I start taking metformin tablets. I'm concerned about how this might affect my baby. Could you please help me understand if there's any potential impact on my baby from taking this medication?

I'm 20 and my periods have always been regular, but this month it's already 7 days late, which is unusual for me. I've never had sex, though my boyfriend and I are sexually active without intercourse. I'm trying to figure out if this could be a hormonal imbalance or something else. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I might do about it?
