Your last period was on 6 November.
You had sexual intimacy on 7 December.
You were already overdue by one day on that date.
Please get your urine pregnancy test done and consult a Gynaecologist.

Get a pregnancy test done to rule out pregnancy if you don't get your periods by 1 week of overdue. If negative then hormonal imbalance, hypothyroidism,stress could be the reason of delayed menses

Upto 37 day cycle is considered normal
So wait till 13th of this month if still you do not get your periods then besides pregnancy the reasons for the delay could be
Weight gain and lack of exercise
Polycystic ovarian syndrome
Hormonal imbalance
Deranged thyroid and prolactin levels
