Suggest Treatment For Delayed Menstruation

Posted on Wed, 15 Feb 2017

Question: I missed my period this month after having an unprotective intercourse last month but I have checked with kit and I got a negative result what pill I have to take to get my periods

Brief Answer:
Wait for a week

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Delayed periods can be due to pregnancy, stress or as a side effect of the emergency contraceptive pill taken after unprotected intercourse.
If there is the history of pill intake, then you can wait for 7-10 days for the periods.
If pill not taken , you can repeat the urine pregnancy test after one week to confirm the diagnosis.
If still negative, then you can take meprate tablet to induce periods.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
