Answer
If your last period started on August 24, and you normally have a 28 day cycle (from the first day of your period until the first day of your next period) ovulation occurs on cycle day #14. You can only become pregnant if you have sex on cycle day #13, 14, 15,  or 16. That would have been on September 5,6,7, or 8. If you did become pregnant on one of those days, a pregnancy test would not show a positive result until September 20-27. If you are having symptoms of pregnancy, take a pregnancy test. By now it will be accurate. The bleeding may have been some abnormal bleeding and not your period. However, since you have missed your period in September, you should first take a pregnancy test.
