Not necessarily. She just might be irregular.

Well, if the sex was unprotected and her periods are usually very regular then it is definately a possibility and means she should take a pregnancy test.
It is possible that the period is late, or lighter than normal as it may have been affected by medication, stress or more/less excersise than usual.
But if she has had unprotected sex or the contraception has failed then she needs a pregnancy test. This is the only possible way of knowing for sure.

There are many reasons a girl's period doesn't come on time. Hers could just be late. Stress, change in diet and exercise, or being on medication can all affect the timing of a period. Pregnancy is a possibility, but its best to wait a week after the period is supposed to arrive to take the test... if anything to give it time to come if its going to.

If you were supposed to get your period during that time and you skipped it quite possibly yes. If that is the cause I would suggest you get a pregeancy test and find out. There are other reasons for why one might skip her period though. Like lack of food or stress. So keep those in mind too.

It really depends. When was her last period? If It was over thirty days, when you had sex, then she maybe pregnant. Best bet is to get a pregnancy test. If she is negative, then you should think about this. Use protection in the future, or don't have sex.

technically you could get pregnant at any point of the cycle, howeever the time for the ovulation is in the middle of the cycle, that's day 14 for a 28 days cycle... one week before your period would be day 21, and at this point it's not so easy to get pregnant... but its still possible... i'd say this girl you are talking about is only late.

you can't tell just from a missed period. That's just a tip off. She needs to take a test. The best answer I can give is maybe. It could also be a combination of other things like hormones or increased athletic activity.

Maybe, maybe not. There are pregnancy tests available over the counter for only a few dollars at all drugstores and places like KMart. Even some dollar stores have them. Just get a test!

If u didn't use protection u maight. but we can't be sure till u see adoctor or do a pregnancy test urself. U can get one at any pharmacy, or u can have it done at ur local clinic, it's free and ur parents don't have to know if u don't want them to..

Not necessarily. Irregular cycles are increasingly common in all industrialized countries.
