I have missed my period for 30 days, and my pregnancy test came back negative. Should I still wait for my period to start, or should I take any further steps?

30 day missed period with negative test means pregnancy unlikely. Can be due to stress, diet, illness, or hormonal imbalance. Wait 1 to 2 weeks; if periods do not start, consult doctor. You can book Serum Beta hCG for confirmation. If irregularity continues, check Thyroid Profile and Prolactin.

Take a Beta HCG Test Test or Take a Thyroid Profile (T3 T4 TSH) Test Test

My periods are delayed by 12 days, but my pregnancy test result is negative. What could be the reason for this delay, and what should I do? Please suggest.

My last menstrual period was on April 24. We had unprotected intercourse on April 28, and I took an emergency contraceptive (ipill) on April 29. My period has still not arrived. I have taken five home pregnancy tests, all of which were negative. I consulted a doctor, who prescribed Meperate, and I have been taking it for the past three days, but my period has not started yet. I am feeling worried.

My girlfriend took a pregnancy test and got negative three times after missing her period for 2 weeks. She took Meprate for 3 days and got her period after 2 days with heavy flow for 5 days. Can she still be pregnant? Does Meprate cause periods even if you are pregnant? Please help.
