Thank you Dr XXXXXXX XXXXXXX I will definitely wait for another 10 days, Is there any medication I can take if I still don't get my periods after 10 days? If so please suggest.
Brief Answer:
Tablets suggested as below
Detailed Answer:
If you do not take your periods, it is wise to consult a gynecologist and go for an ultrasound scan to know the status of the endometrium ( lining of your uterus ).
Then progesterone tablets ( eg. Deviry, Meprate ) can be started in a dosage of 10 mg twice a day for 5 days.
Once you finish the 5 - day course, bleeding happens within 2 - 3 days.
Take care.
It is better to avoid taking I pill etc, as it leads to menstrual irregularities in the future.
Best is to use condoms or regular oral contraceptive pills.
Take care.
