I am married, and my last menstrual period was on May 9. I usually have a regular cycle of 27 to 28 days. We take proper hygiene measures after intercourse. I have not yet had my period this month. I experienced cramps around my expected date, but my period did not arrive. I took a home pregnancy test on the 34th day, which was negative. It has now been 36 days. Should I wait longer, try period inducing foods, or do heavy workouts? Please advise.

A negative test on day 34 is usually accurate, but to be sure, you can do a blood beta hCG test. Cramps and delayed periods can happen due to hormonal changes or stress. Avoid doing heavy workouts or eating period inducing foods until pregnancy is fully ruled out.

I have had two early pregnancy losses last year, each within about one week. When I tested, the pregnancy tests showed a faint line, and repeated tests also gave faint results, followed by heavy bleeding. I am unable to understand the cause of this issue. All my blood tests are normal, and my husband semen analysis is also normal, although he has been taking medicines to improve semen quality. During those times, I was taking folic acid tablets, progesterone injections, and other medications. Could you please help me understand what might be causing these repeated early losses and advise how this issue can be treated or managed?

I took Letrozole from day 3 to day 7 of my cycle and ovulated on the 12th day, after which I received an hCG injection on the same day. From day 20 to day 26, I took Duphaston 10 mg. I have not got my period yet, and I have no PMS symptoms so far. My urine pregnancy test came back negative. Is my period delayed because of Duphaston, or is there still a chance that I could be pregnant? How can I confirm this, and until which day should I wait before testing again?
