Can period be delayed by 10 days?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Periods can get delayed by any number of days. If next cycle starts from 28 +/- 7 days from the first date of last menstrual cycle then it is considered a normal cycle. A delay of 10 days is not normal and may need evaluation.

View allI'm a bit worried because I got my last period on July 23rd, but I still haven't gotten it again. I took a urine test, but it came back negative. I've started taking Cyclenorm E and P, 6 tablets per day for the past 2 days. How long does it usually take for periods to start after this?
your period may occur within 3-7 days. This can vary depending on your individual response to the medication. However, if your periods do not start within this time frame or if you experience any side effects, it is important to consult with your doctor.

If your last period was on January 30th, you generally have until approximately 11 weeks from that date to consider medication abortion (abortion pills). Surgical abortion options, like suction aspiration, are usually available up to 13 weeks. Some clinics may extend the timeframe for medication abortion beyond 11 weeks, depending on their policies

My mom has been bleeding non-stop for the past 8 days and the doctor prescribed Ovral L and methergin. Her sonography report says she has an anteverted bulky uterus measuring 12.48.36.1cm with 14.7mm endometrial thickness. There's also a 4.03.7cm intramural hypoechoic lesion and multiple small follicles in both ovaries. Is surgery the only option or can this be managed with medication?
Endometrial biopsy required. After that treatment can be decided.
