Please wait
Detailed Answer:
Hello
I read your query and I understand your concerns about delayed periods and gestofit.
Gestofit is a progesterone medicine which will help in getting periods by temporarily increasing progesterone levels in your body.
This is called withdrawal bleeding. It takes about 7 days ( not 2 days ) for periods to start in some women. Hence please wait for another 4 days. If no periods occur in next 4 days you can go for different medicines with combination of estrogen and progesterone.
Let me know if you need any more clarifications.
I will be available for follow up questions.
