Hello,

Irregularity in menstrual cycles is very common during stressful times. However, if you are sexually active, it is important to get a home pregnancy test done to rule out pregnancy.

If the pregnancy test is negative and you do not menstruate this month too, please follow up with your ObGyn. Your provider may consider starting medication(like Norethisterone) to regularize period.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Lekshmi Rita Venugopal, General & Family Physician
