Question 1

Hai Doctor, my period has been delayed by 8 days. I am undergoing treatment for fertility problems, and since starting treatment my periods had been regular. I visited my doctor today, and she asked me to take a urine pregnancy test, which came out negative. She advised me to wait for another 5 days, saying that sometimes fertilization can be delayed. My question is: can this really happen, is it useful to wait further, and is it safe to have sex during this time?

Question 2

I was trying to conceive and underwent a follicular study. After ovulation, my doctor prescribed Susten 400 (vaginal) for 15 days. My last LMP was 1st August. I have neither got my period nor is my pregnancy test positive. Can you suggest the possible cause? Does Susten 400 delay periods, or could I still be pregnant?

Question 3

Today is the expected day of my period, but I have not gotten it yet. Can I take a pregnancy test tomorrow morning, and will it give an accurate result?

If my test comes out positive, what should I do? Please suggest, as I am married and unable to go to the hospital for this purpose.

If test is positive and you cant visit hospital, monitor symptoms and confirm pregnancy with lab test. Avoid self medication. Seek teleconsult if needed.
