Brief Answer:
Do blood test for beta-hCG.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

Safe period CAN'T be calculated if you have irregular period. In this case, I suggest you to undergo one blood test for beta-hCG to rule out pregnancy.

Home pregnancy test is NOT much significant in early stage. Blood test is confirmatory and next management can be done after reviewing test result.

Hope, I have answered your query. Wish your good health and take care.

For future query, you can directly approach me through

Brief Answer:
Not pregnant. Wait 4-5 days.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,

Thanks for follow up query.

Blood test for beta-hCG value less than 2 mIU/ ml indicates NEGATIVE test result and you are NOT pregnant.

Most women get their withdrawal bleeding like period within 7-10 days of taking Meprate. I suggest you to await another 4 to 5 days to get period naturally. Be stress free and it will help to induce period.

Hope, it helps for your information. Good luck and take care.
