It is happening for the first time that my periods are delayed for 1 week. Urine and blood pregnancy tests are negative. Recently a doctor prescribed me vitamin C tablets and now my new doctor prescribed me methylprogesterone acetate tablets twice a day for 5 days. I took 3 tablets till now but my periods have not come yet. What could be the reason?

Its common for periods to delay despite Vitamin C and progesterone (Methylprogesterone). Usually, bleeding starts within 5 to 10 days after completing the 5 day course. If your period still does not come, consider doing a pelvic scan and hormone test panel.
Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...
Take a TSH Test (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Test or Take a FSH,LH & Prolactin, Serum Test

View allHi, I usually have irregular periods, sometimes as infrequent as once in 15 days. I consulted a doctor, who examined my reports and mentioned an initial stage of PCOD, prescribing medication for 2 months. After taking the medicines, my periods were normal. My first period after marriage was normal, but now the same problem has returned. I have taken a pregnancy test, and it is negative.
