I'm curious about something: I've got PCOD and my doctor told me to take Duphaston starting from the 16th day of my cycle for 10 days. I've been consistent with taking two tablets each day since day 16, but now it's been about six days since I stopped and I haven't gotten my period yet. There's no chance I'm pregnant since there wasn't any intercourse. Do you know what might be going on and what steps I should take next?
