Hello,

If you did not get your periods 2 weeks after taking Meprate for withdrawal bleed then you probably need to get evaluated .To get withdrawal bleeding you need the endometrium to be of a minimum thickness (at least 7 mm).

You can do the following tests for evaluation:
- Beta HCH to rule out pregnancy
- TSH and prolactin level in blood
- Ultrasound pelvis
- AMH level in blood

If the above investigations are normal then you need not worry. You can start on combined oral pills (if you do not have any contraindication) after meeting your healthcare provider so that ideal pill can be suggested to you based on your health history.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Praseetha Narayanan, OB & GYN Specialist
