A more minor detail: but you could have one week

A menstrual cycle can be between 20-40 days. Occam's razor (most likely explanation) would suggest that if you recently had unprotected sex and missed a period that you are pregnant, and so we would hope a reasonable person would get tested immediately. But if a person had protected sex, especially if they have late periods frequently, then Occasm's razor would suggest they they are just late again, which means it wouldn't be until 40+ days that they realized "oh shit I'm pregnant"

A minor detail though IMO, the chance of getting pregnant on birth control or with a condom are very low
Minor details at scale are big problems. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
