We're planning to start trying for a baby and I'm wondering if it's okay to take Supradyn and Folvite tablets for one to two months before we begin. Can you give some advice on whether this is a good idea?

I'm a bit worried because I haven't had my periods for 44 days now and I got a Beta Hcg test done yesterday which was 1.2 ml. My usual cycle is around 33 to 34 days. Could there still be a chance that I'm pregnant?

I've been dealing with some irregular periods lately, and I'm trying to figure out why this might be happening. I'm 22 years old, and this has only started happening in the past few months. What could be the causes for these changes in my menstrual cycle?

Common reasons include hormonal imbalances, stress, excessive exercise, thyroid disorders, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and certain medications. I would recommend consulting with a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. If hormonal imbalance is suspected, birth control pills like "Yaz" can be prescribed to regulate the menstrual cycle.
