My last menstrual period was on 22nd August. On 27th August, my endometrial lining was measured at 16 mm. My pregnancy test is negative. I do not have polycystic ovaries, and my menstrual cycles are usually regular, but last time the period lasted only 2.5 days. What should be the next step?

If LMP was August 22, lining is 16 mm by August 27, and test is negative, it may be early or anovulatory cycle. Since your cycles are regular and no PCOS, this may be stress related. Wait a few more days or do a Serum beta hCG again. If still negative, consult a gynecologist and consider TVS follicular monitoring next cycle.

After a home pregnancy test report was negative, I have not had my period for approximately one and a half months. What should I do next?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I took Hucog 5000 injection on 03 Dec, i.e., the 23rd day of my cycle. When should I expect my period to start or go for the pregnancy test?

I am 26 years old. It has been 62 days since my last period, and I am trying to conceive, but my urine pregnancy test shows negative. I am worried. For the past week, I have been experiencing stomach burns and slight changes in my body condition. What could be the reason?
