My girlfriend took a pregnancy test and got negative three times after missing her period for 2 weeks. She took Meprate for 3 days and got her period after 2 days with heavy flow for 5 days. Can she still be pregnant? Does Meprate cause periods even if you are pregnant? Please help.

Three negative pregnancy tests after 2 weeks of missed periods strongly suggest she is not pregnant. Meprate (medroxyprogesterone) is usually not effective if someone is pregnant. Getting a 5 day heavy flow after Meprate makes pregnancy highly unlikely. For full confirmation, a Beta HCG blood test can be done.

Hi Doctor, I am writing on behalf of my wife. We are trying to conceive. Her last period started on 13th August, and her next period is due on 13th Sept. We went ahead and did an hCG blood test, and the result came back as 92. We also tried a urine pregnancy test, which showed a faint positive line. Does this mean she is pregnant? Can pregnancy be confirmed even before the missed period? We are a bit confused and not sure if we should celebrate yet. Please guide us.

Which test is better in one month of pregnancy, UPT or HCG? Which test gives a good result in 4 to 5 weeks of pregnancy?

Can I get a blood test on the 6th day after my embryo transfer, mam? I have no symptoms and am in the 2 week wait, so I am anxious about the results.
