What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy With Missing Periods And Negative UPT?

default
Posted on Thu, 26 Jun 2014
Question: I get my periods on 20-22 of every month but this month, in XXXXXXX i missed my periods. Although i didnt have intercourse with my husband, he didnt insert in me, just kept near vagina for maximum 5 seconds and im sure he didnt release anything but i still think if by chance i got pregnant. Im taking homeopathic medicine for hirsutism but that doesnt have anything to do with late periods. I tested twice using home kits and it shows negative but i doubt it as still i havent got my periods yet, should i take the mtp kit?

Brief Answer:
No need to take MTP kit

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,welcome to HealthcareMagic forum.
I am Dr Aslam here to help you.

If two UPTs at 1 week interval after missing the period were tested negative,pregnancy is ruled out.If you are so obsessed,you can repeat the test after one more week,or go for a serum beta HCG test,which is a bit costly,but can rule out pregnancy right now with 100% confidence.
If pregnancy is ruled out,you need not worry-just wait for the next period.Only if the problem persists in the coming months also,we need a detailed evaluation.Most of the times,such irregularities will corrected its own in the coming cycles.

You are not supposed to take MTP kits without a recorded,definite indication-these are not just medicines,but contain high dose hormonal agents with its own side effect profile.
Hope I have answered your query.If you have further questions,I will be happy to help.
Wishing you good health,Thank you.
