Welcome to EmpowHER. Thank you for reaching out to our community with your concern about your girlfriend's late period.
You are very responsible to use a condom, each and every time you have intercourse.
High stress levels can cause a delay in the start of a period. During periods of prolonged stress, the body produces more of the hormone, cortisol. High levels of cortisol can trigger the body to shut down nonessential functions, including the menstrual cycle.
If she is not concerned about her period being late, no need to bring up the subject. Help her to relax, and her period should start soon.
