I took Regesterone 5 mg twice daily for 13 days to postpone my periods. It has been 10 days since I stopped the medicine, but I have not gotten my period yet. I only had a little spotting on the 5th day. My urine pregnancy test is negative. What should I do?

Delay after Regesterone is common. Periods may take 7to10 days to resume. If still absent, repeat pregnancy test and check hormonal profile.

Take a Beta HCG Test Test or Take a Progesterone Test Test

Can a beta HCG blood report be wrong in early pregnancy? Because my cycle length is 40 to 45 days. I got my beta HCG test done after a 1 day delay as per my cycle and the report came negative.

Is it necessary for the value of two beta hCG tests to increase in order to confirm a pregnancy? If both values are the same, what does it indicate? The tests were done 48 hours apart.

My pregnancy test was positive when done yesterday, but today I had some sudden bleeding at the office. It did not continue, and right now there is no bleeding. I am very nervous and worried. Kindly suggest what I should do?
