My doctor has put me on progesterone suppositories since day 14 of my cycle to support a possible pregnancy. My period is four days late, and I have a negative home pregnancy test as well as a negative blood test. Can the progesterone suppositories be causing my period to be late?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Progesterone supports the uterine lining and can delay your period even if you are not pregnant. Since both home and Beta hCG blood tests are negative, pregnancy is unlikely. Your period should resume after stopping the suppository. If not, retest or consult a gynecologist.

View allI took a pill on June 30, and since then my menstruation has been irregular. I am now feeling heavy bloating in my stomach, as if something is inside. I had an ultrasound on July 11, which showed nothing except PCOS. I have also done home pregnancy tests three times, the last on July 21, and all were negative. Why am I feeling so full and why is my tummy extended? Should I have another ultrasound? Please advise.

My last period was on July 25. I did a beta HCG test on August 25, and the result was 0.4, so I am not pregnant. However, as of August 30, I still have not gotten my period. How can I get pregnant now? My first child is 7 years old.

My period was due on 27 July, but I have not got it yet. I had ovulation or intimation around my expected period time. I am having cramps and very little white discharge. I feel as if my menstrual period has started, but it has not. I also did a home pregnancy test, which was negative. I am even checking my urine color, which is white or pale yellow. I am confused about what is happening?
