I'm not sure what medication your girlfriend is on, however sometimes it is normal to be a few days or even a week late for a period. There are many reasons for irregular periods (from the obvious pregnancy, to stress, diet and many other reasons). If you have a question about her medication do a google search and see what you can learn about the effects or as a pharmacist.

im not an expert but ill try to help... everything that imortalone said is true but you also said that it was ur guys first time. i have heard that the first time a girl has sex can affect her period because her body is going to changes and trying to adjust to them.(my first time i was a week late) also if she stresses her self out thinking that shes pregnant that can also affect it.....i hope i helped just a bit good luck
