My girlfriend and I had intercourse on 27th July and 10th August. Her last period started on 21st July, and her periods are usually regular. This time, she has not gotten her period. She took pregnancy tests on 24th, 26th, 27th, and 28th August, and all were negative. One doctor advised taking Meprate tablets, but I am still confused. Could she be pregnant, and is it safe to take Meprate in this situation? What should we do next?

If your girlfriend took 4 pregnancy tests after missed period and all are negative, and one doctor advised Meprate, pregnancy is unlikely. Meprate helps bring periods when hormonal delay is suspected. However, before starting it, do a Serum beta hCG Test to rule out even rare pregnancy chance. If negative, Meprate can be taken as per prescription.

View allI am married, and my last menstrual period was on May 9. I usually have a regular cycle of 27 to 28 days. We take proper hygiene measures after intercourse. I have not yet had my period this month. I experienced cramps around my expected date, but my period did not arrive. I took a home pregnancy test on the 34th day, which was negative. It has now been 36 days. Should I wait longer, try period inducing foods, or do heavy workouts? Please advise.

I had a positive home pregnancy test. I got an HCG beta test on 16th July, which showed a value of 1300, and it was repeated on 19th July, showing 1933. Then I had a TVS scan done, and a very small gestational sac was present. I have been taking progesterone as advised. The doctor asked me to come after 8 days and is giving HCG 5000 IUI injection once a week. What are the chances of a healthy pregnancy? I am really worried. Please help. I have attached all the reports.

Dear Doctor, I delivered a baby girl via cesarean section. Since past week, I have been feeling weak. Today, I did a home pregnancy test, and it came out positive. I am worried because I recently delivered and am concerned about being pregnant again so soon. Could you please advise if this result is likely valid, and what steps I should take next?
