Can chia seeds really affect menstrual cycles? I took a 5-day course of Deviry, but I'm still not getting my period. It's never been delayed this long2 months nowand my pregnancy test came back negative. I'm really confused and worried about what's going on. What could be the reason for this delay?

Your symptoms suggest a viral infection, possibly influenza or a respiratory virus. The recurring fever pattern is common in such cases. Continue taking Dolo 650 for fever management, and consider adding a humidifier to relieve congestion. Consult your doctor about adding antiviral medication or adjusting your current medication regimen.
