Hello doctor, when is the right time to do a beta HCG test? I got a negative UPT. I was supposed to have my periods on 18th July, but they are irregular due to PCOD. I am on Normoz DS and taking folic acid. Please advise.

If you missed your period and have PCOD, the ideal time for beta hCG is 7to10 days after your expected date. Since your UPT is negative and its already late, do a Serum beta hCG Test now for confirmation. If its negative, continue Normoz and folic acid, and follow up with your gynecologist.

I had sex with my boyfriend on the 24th and 25th, and my period was due on the 27th. I have not gotten my period yet. I took pregnancy tests on the 31st and the 1st, and both were negative. I still have not gotten my period. What should I do?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have not gotten my period for 2 months and am taking some medication to induce it. I have done two pregnancy tests, both negative. I have been experiencing period like pain for the past week, but my period has still not started. What should I do? Could I be pregnant?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My last period was on July 25. I did a beta HCG test on August 25, and the result was 0.4, so I am not pregnant. However, as of August 30, I still have not gotten my period. How can I get pregnant now? My first child is 7 years old.
