I'm taking regestrone 5mg tablets because my gynaecologist suggested them since my periods got delayed. We had unprotected sex and he ejaculated inside. I'm really worried about getting pregnant now. What are the chances of becoming pregnant while taking regestrone? Just so you know, I did a pregnancy test before starting regestrone and it came back negative.

Regestrone is a synthetic progestin that helps regulate the menstrual cycle. While it can help with delayed periods, it is not a contraceptive method. The chances of getting pregnant while on regestrone are still present, especially if unprotected intercourse occurs. It is important to use additional contraceptive methods to prevent pregnancy. If you are concerned about pregnancy, you may consider emergency contraception like Levonorgestrel 1.5mg as a precautionary measure within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse.

I'm really confused right now since my period is 36 days late. I took a pregnancy test two weeks back and it came out negative, but I'm experiencing a bunch of pregnancy symptoms. I'm not sure what to do next. Should I be worried about something else going on? What steps should I take from here?

It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can consider taking a different brand of pregnancy test or a blood test for a more accurate result. If pregnancy is ruled out and your period is still delayed, your doctor may recommend further investigations or prescribe medication such as Provera (medroxyprogesterone) to help induce a period.

I've been having really bad menstrual cramps and backaches, and I feel so much body ache about a week before my period even starts. It's gotten to the point where I can hardly walk because of the pain, and for three days, I can't sleep or even eat properly. I end up taking Meftal Spas when it just gets too much to handle. Is there anything else I can do to manage or maybe even reduce this pain?
