Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. If the urine pregnancy test was negative after missing10 days after expected periods, then chances of pregnancy are ruled out. However, delayed conception can be there.
Regestrone is norethisterone and can cause adverse effects like virilization of female fetus, if taken in early pregnancy.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
