Brief Answer:
tablet norethisterone

Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
It is common to have derangement of cycle length after ipill intake so there is nothing to worry about it as your pregnancy test and bHCG are also negative.
Just take tablet norethisterone 5 mg twice a day for 5 days and after stopping it you will get your periods in a couple of days.
Take care.

thank you so much for helping me with your answer.
i consulted a doctor last week . and she gave me MEDROXYPROGESTERONE TABLETS IP . i took the medicine for five days . i took the medicine on 11th and i completed the medicine on 16th. i took the pill once a day ,during morning.
so is it ok if i take norethisterone tablet again after taking medroxyprogesterone ??
i also have slight lower abdominal pain . and atimes i have this fluid secretion .
i was apprehensive as if am pregnant or not . but as i said the results for both the urine and blood tests were negative.

Detailed Answer:
No mam, there is no need of taking norethisterone as medroxyprogesterone does the same job.
Now all you need is to wait for your periods which will come in a few days from now because usually periods commence within 2-5 days after completing the course of medroxyprogesterone tablets.
This abdominal pain and fluid secretion is also due to the effect of progesterone and will subside by themselves once you will get your periods.
All the best.

i have read this on the internet that sometimes our blood test can be misleading. even if its negative we can be pregnant. i did the blood test on september 11th since i havenot got my periods on august. so is the result reliable as i took the test after having pill and missed periods?
Brief Answer:
no chance
Detailed Answer:
No it is not possible.
Blood test is very conclusive and moreover your urine pregnancy test was also negative so no risk of false negative blood test.
But in case you don't get your periods in another 3 days then you will need an ultrasound to see for ovarian status and endometrial thickness.
But most probably you will get your periods in these 3 days.

Hi, water intake has nothing to do with delay in periods.
Yes ovarian cyst can cause delay in periods but in case you get withdrawal bleeding in coming few days then nothing active needs to be done.
All the best.
