Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
If you are not having any periods even after finishing a Deviry therapy for 20 days, then the following causes needs to be ruled out :-

1. Pregnancy - urine test will help in diagnosis. Since Deviry is not a contraceptive, the chances of pregnancy are there.
2.Thyroid hormone deficiency- A simple blood test will help in excluding hypothyroidism.
3. Anaemia.
I suggest you to wait for at least 7 days after completing the progesterone therapy for the periods to start. If after 7 days periods do not occur, then investigations are entailed.
The appearance of ovarian cysts after a molar pregnancy is normal and these do regress after evacuation is done.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
Since your last periods were on 7th September, we must wait till 15th October for your periods to start spontaneously. The most likely cause of this delay in periods is hormonal disturbance. Taking a regular contraceptive pill like suvidha will help in resuming your periods normally. You can conceive normally in future. Please do not worry.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
