Periods delayed

My periods are regular each month and last periods date was 9th April, we had intercourse on 8th April and immediately next day I had bleeding which lasted for 2 days only. Usually it lasts for 4 days. Since then I don't have my periods yet. I took UPT today and there is a faint line on it. Could it be possible that I am pregnant? Also last month my ENT gave me steroid Defza 6 for throat infection twice a day for 5 days. Could that be reason for delay in periods? I am 41 years old. We have tried to conceive naturally and through IVF in the last few years and have not been able to conceive just fyi. Had 2 early miscarriages at 8 weeks.

Irregular Periods

I get my periods around 12-15th of every month. However, when I got my periods in March, I got them again right after 15 days of my periods (counting from the first day when they started) Means, I got them around 1st April instead of getting them around 15th April. Then, I got them again after 15-18 days which was 3rd of May. And the duration of my periods was from 3rd of May to 15th of May. I have also been having this irritation problem in the external part of my vagina. It's always itchy when it's damp. As I get my periods frequently, I also get bad rashes from pads which makes that irritation even worse. And I just got done with my periods but today I felt itching due the rashes of pads and then I again saw the blood spots. I am concerned about why this is happening since past 1.5 Months almost. I haven't taken any suspicious pill or medicines as well. I have only been under medication for the past 20 days for jaundice.
