I had a medical abortion in December 2017 and I still have not gotten my periods. I have taken a pregnancy test every month and it has been negative. What should I do and how can I get my periods back?

Absence of periods for this long needs thorough evaluation. Could be Ashermans syndrome (uterine lining scarring) or hormonal suppression. Get a Pelvic Ultrasound to check uterus and endometrium. Do hormone tests: TSH, FSH, Prolactin, and LH. Consult a gynecologist for further treatment like hormonal therapy or hysteroscopy.

I have had irregular menstruation for the last two months. I checked with a test kit on 24 oct, and the result was negative. I want to conceive a baby. Please suggest what I should do and whether I need any tests or medicines?

I am not married and have never had sexual intercourse, but my period has been delayed for 60 days. I consulted a doctor, who prescribed folic acid and iron tablets for 10 days. I completed the course, but my period still has not started. I do not have thyroid or hormonal problems. What could be the reason, and what should I do?

My last period was on February 25, and I still have not gotten my period. I did a beta HCG test on March 25, which was 0.4 (negative), and a urine pregnancy test on April 2, which was also negative. What should I do next?
