Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I usually have my period quite frequently, give or take a couple of days but i always have it every month! It s 3 months late now, I have done 2 pregnancy tests both have showed negative. I don t want to go to the docs as I have already done two tests which show negative I don t want them feeling I m wasting their time. What do you recommend? Thank you.
hi.. thanks for posting in HCM. I have gone through your query and understand your concern. there are a multiple reasons for delayed periods, most common being stress, thyroid abnormality and idiopathic (no specific reason). Your pregnancy tests are negative but we cannot completely rule out pregnancy. If I were your treating doctor, I would suggest tab. Duphaston (dydrogesterone) 10mg daily twice for five days. After two or three days of stopping this medicine, you will get periods. If do not get your periods after this tablet I suggest you to consult a gyn-obs specialist to get tested for pregnancy again with an ultrasound of uterus. Even if you are pregnant, this medicine is very safe in pregnancy. hope my answer helped. thank you.
