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.

I went to the doctor and had a thyroid test and asked about pregnancy to which she answered no. I still have a thyroid test report. Could anyone please refer to the test report and let me know what is mentioned regarding pregnancy as there is something written as pregnancy?

I took a pregnancy test on the morning of my missed period, and it showed negative. However, I still have doubts. I had sexual intercourse on the 11th day of my cycle?
