Brief Answer:
Treatment depends upon the urine pregnancy test

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
Delayed periods can be due to pregnancy or hormonal imbalance.
I will suggest you to get a urine pregnancy test done to rule out any pregnancy.
If pregnancy is there and you are willing to terminate it, then you should consult an OBGYN specialist for proper examination and medical abortion accordingly.Medical abortion can be taken while breastfeeding
Regestrone is not used for termination of pregnancy.
If pregnancy test is negative, then you can take regestrone tablet to induce the periods.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Regards
