Question 1

Hi, my friend has had irregular periods for a long time, occurring once every 2 to 3 months. She consulted an allopathy doctor and all tests, including thyroid and scans, were normal. The doctor suggested it should improve after her marriage. She continues to have hair fall but no weight gain or loss. I suggested consulting an Ayurvedic doctor from Kerala. She is taking the medicines suggested by the doctor, but this time it has been 2.5 months and she has not got her period. Before that, her periods continued for 2 months, though the flow was very less. She is also worried about pregnancy, but they are not planning to have children for another 1 to 2 years. She did home pregnancy tests twice in October, once in the first week and once in the last week, after skipping her 2 month period. Just in case, the urine test was a false result. They are planning to go for a blood test. Is it possible that the home test was wrong both times, and can the blood test report be trusted?

Question 2

Seventeen days after my IUI, I took a urine pregnancy test, and it is showing a faint line. I have attached a photo of the test for reference.

Question 3

My wife is taking Susten 200 tablets to get pregnant. She has crossed her period date (regular 28 day cycle). We checked with a urine test on the 32nd day, and it was negative. I would like to know if the missed period is due to the Susten 200 tablet or if we did the pregnancy test too early? Thank you.

I went to the doctor and had a thyroid test and asked about pregnancy to which she answered no. I still have a thyroid test report. Could anyone please refer to the test report and let me know what is mentioned regarding pregnancy as there is something written as pregnancy?

Thyroid panels often include pregnancy reference ranges, but this does not confirm pregnancy. The test itself cant detect pregnancy. You should do a Beta hCG blood test to confirm.
