Brief Answer: Yes. It is normal. Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for trusting us with your health concern. The delay in periods that you are having is due to the weight loss associated with the use of Hydroxycut. This is a normal finding. There is no need to worry. You will have your periods in next few days. In case the periods are still delayed then you can consult your gynecologist who will prescribe you hormonal tablets for a withdrawal bleeding. Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have. Wishing you good health. Regards. Dr. Rakhi Tayal.

Ive been only taking it for a few days.. i started a week before my period was supposed to start.. last month it was a few days late but it came on... i took a pregnancy test a few days ago n it came back negative... should i wait to take another one before i go to the doctor?

Brief Answer: Yes. Do a repeat pregnancy test. Detailed Answer: Hello. Thanks for writing again. Yes. It is best to repeat the pregnancy test and if it is negative then consult your gynecologist to rule out polycystic ovaries or a hormonal imbalance after proper blood tests and ultrasound scan. Hope my answer is helpful. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish you good health. Regards
