I've noticed that my menstrual cycle is delayed by two days, which has never happened to me before. I'm wondering how much of a delay in periods is considered normal and if there might be any reasons behind this change.

I'm usually on a 30-day cycle and have PCOD. I've been going through fertility treatment and started taking Duphaston from the 16th day. My period was due on the 5th, and now it's the 12th, but I still haven't gotten it. I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative. Should I stop taking Duphaston, or is there a chance I'll get my period while still on it?

Best would be to consult gynaecologist who is treating. Otherwise wait for one more week for periods then repeat pregnancy test with morning sample urine, if negative then stop Duphaston.

I've heard about a multivitamin but I'm curious about what makes it special. Is it just a regular multivitamin, or does it have benefits over something like Revital H for women? I'm also looking for something that can help with fatigue, hot flashes, and improve my vision. Any suggestions?

I have a 4.5cm dermoid cyst in my right ovary and my doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery. Are hospitals in Indirapuram or Ghaziabad currently performing these surgeries? I've been having bloating on my right side and thigh, and sometimes it gets so bad I can't walk. Is this normal with a cyst this size?
