My wife has missed her periods. We have done two pregnancy tests, both of which were negative. We always use protection during sex. We are concerned, what could be the reason for her missed periods, and what should we do?

If protected and test is negative, pregnancy is unlikely. Stress or hormones may delay periods. Do TSH, FSH, and Prolactin blood tests to find the cause.

Dr. Hema Suggests...

Take a TSH Test (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Test or Take a FSH Test (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) Test

Book TSH Test (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Test Book FSH Test (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) Test

My last period was on 5th August, but I did not get my period by 5th Sept. I visited a doctor, and she prescribed Prevent N tablet for 3 days, but my period did not start by 9th Sept, so I did a serum hCG test, which came back as less than 1.20 mIU/mL. Even today, I still have not had my period. What should I do next?
