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.
