Taking Regesterone For Irregular Periods. Will It Affect In Case Am Pregnant?
Hello,
my periods have been irregular for a while now. i started taking two regestrone's since yesterday, and i plan on continuing for 5 days, i.e 4 more days. should i expect my periods then? and also, i am quite sure i shouldnt be pregnant, firstly because i had sex last on 23rd oct, and secondly all the urine strips are saying negative. but my query is, incase i really am pregnant, what could be the effects of taking the pill regestrone for five days?

Hi first of all nothing to worry as regesterone is hormone progesterone that is normally secreted in pregnancy so it will not harm it, secondly get serum beta HCG done as it is a confirmatory test for pregnancy
