I took Regesterone 5 mg twice daily for 13 days to postpone my periods. It has been 10 days since I stopped the medicine, but I have not gotten my period yet. I only had a little spotting on the 5th day. My urine pregnancy test is negative. What should I do?

Delay after Regesterone is common. Periods may take 7to10 days to resume. If still absent, repeat pregnancy test and check hormonal profile.

Dr. Yusuf Suggests...

Take a Beta HCG Test Test or Take a Progesterone Test Test

Hi. I had IUI done on 23rd December. I am using Susten 300 and Duphaston tablets and took an HCG shot (5000) before IUI. Can I get a correct pregnancy test result while using these medicines? How and when should I take the test? My LMP is 10th December. Kindly suggest?

I missed my period one week ago so I checked at home with Prega News and it came positive. Today I also did a blood test and the HCG report is given below. Can you please tell me if I am pregnant or not as I am eagerly waiting for your answer?

I am 28 years old and just took a pregnancy test, which came back positive. I am feeling very anxious, extremely tired, and drowsy. I already have one child, 4.5 years old. Could you please advise what steps I should take next and any precautions I should follow at this stage?
