He didn't ejaculate in me . He passed away in the month of XXXXXXX I was very stressful. I did blood test and urine test and pregnancy results are negative. I have not got my periods since march. I don't understand the reason of the same. My stomach size is also increased. What should I do to get my periods back.
Brief Answer:
Norethisterone tablets needed for withdrawal
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX, thanks for trusting health care magic.
I understand your health concern.
This is just due to the stress which u know is substantial after such a tragic incident.
So as the pregnancy test is negative the periods will come after withdrawal via Progesterone.
We usually give tablet norethisterone 5 mg three times a day for 3 days and then periods come in 2-7 days after stopping this medicine.
But it is a prescription drug so you might need prescription to fetch it from the chemist.
But all in all nothing much to worry.
Regards
