Brief Answer:
Please take a pregnancy test first.

Detailed Answer:
Well if she has not taken a pregnancy test, how can she take the Unwanted kit ?
That is to be taken for termination of pregnancy only when pregnancy is confirmed.
Once pregnancy is confirmed and dated by a doctor, only then those pills have to be taken by prescription.
You have taken the pills without prescription.
First it is necessary to take a pregnancy test.
First please do that and let me know, so that I can guide you about further course of action.

Brief Answer:
Possible reasons listed.

Detailed Answer:
Pregnancy could be one possible reason.
If she has taken it without being pregnant, she should still bleed.
Stress , anxiety, weight gain, exercise, travelling, smoking , drinking, these are possible reasons for delay of periods.
If she has taken any medication such as the I pill, that could delay the period.

We took a pregnancy test and the result was negative... So she should get her periods right ?? How long will it delay ?? Please look into previous queries and give us a solution.. If she consults a doc , will they know we used such tablets ???

Brief Answer:
Yes wait a while, she should get her period.

Detailed Answer:
As the test is negative, yes she will get her period soon.
Unless you tell the doctor , there is no way of knowing what pills you took.
IF she does not get her period after a week, consult a gynecologist for ultrasound scan and hormonal levels.
Take care.

Thanks a lot for clearing my doubt's.. Will they know what tab s taken if blood test s done ?? Can u just explain for what ultra sound scan s done ??

Answered by Dr. Aarti Abraham (3 hours later)

Brief Answer:
Tests named, scan to check lining of uterus.

Detailed Answer:
Of course I will explain it to you.
If she does not have her period, blood tests are done to check for hormonal imbalance.
The tests are - FSH, LH, TSH, Prolactin.
The ultrasound scan will tell you the status of the lining of the uterus.
IF the lining is thick enough, a period is nearby.
If it is not thick enough, progesterone tablets are given to induce a period.
Take care.
