My doctor has put me on progesterone suppositories since day 14 of my cycle to support a possible pregnancy. My period is four days late, and I have a negative home pregnancy test as well as a negative blood test. Can the progesterone suppositories be causing my period to be late?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Progesterone supports the uterine lining and can delay your period even if you are not pregnant. Since both home and Beta hCG blood tests are negative, pregnancy is unlikely. Your period should resume after stopping the suppository. If not, retest or consult a gynecologist.

I have been experiencing symptoms that could indicate pregnancy, including headache, backache, nausea, and fatigue. My period is 10 days late. I took a pregnancy test five days ago and it was negative, and I took another one today which was also negative. I was taking birth control but stopped when I noticed my period was late, hoping it might start. I have scheduled an appointment with my primary doctor, but it is not for another two weeks.

I took a pill on June 30, and since then my menstruation has been irregular. I am now feeling heavy bloating in my stomach, as if something is inside. I had an ultrasound on July 11, which showed nothing except PCOS. I have also done home pregnancy tests three times, the last on July 21, and all were negative. Why am I feeling so full and why is my tummy extended? Should I have another ultrasound? Please advise.
