hi healthcare magic user, if you are then only you get periods or bleeding following misoprost tablet.
That too if you take complete dose of misoprost.
please first confirm about pregnancy get a pelvic ultrasound done to rule out ectopic pregnancy.
If everything is normal then you can take progesterone tablets to start periods.
if pregnancy test is positive then treatment plan will be different.

Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Misoprostol tablets do not have the effect of delaying the periods.
Delayed periods can be due to pregnancy, stress or hormonal disturbances like hypothyroidism, hyperprolactemia or polycystic ovarian disease.
Iwill suggest you to get an urine pregnancy test done to rule out any pregnancy, if negative, then you should get your hormonal profile done and ultrasound done to confirm the diagnosis.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
