Brief Answer:
She should go for ultrasound pelvis.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing to us about it.

I can understand your concern, though.

She should consult a gynecologist and get her ultrasound pelvis done to find out the cause.

The abortion pills should only be conducted under supervision of a doctor because sometimes it may cause severe bleeding, infection and incomplete abortion.

In her example if her pregnancy test was negative why she had abortion pills?

Abortion pills can disturb her menstrual cycle.

Please revert back to me with my inquiries and her ultrasound reports.

Hope to hearing from you soon.

Good luck.
Regards
Dr.Richa

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Nice to hear from you again though.

Yes, it is true that sometimes home urine pregnancy test shows false negative results.

Commonly it is done 7 days after missed period date.

Ultrasound pelvis is important in her case to find out the cause.

Then she can take treatment accordingly.

Hope it is useful, feel free to ask more.

Good luck.

Brief Answer:
Period may be delay due to abortion pills also.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Nice to hear from you again though.

Yes, a period may be detained due to abortion pills also.

There are so many cases of missed period like stress, PCOD, hormonal imbalance, infection, weight changes, exercise also.

So if pregnancy is not there, then other causes also keep in intellect.

Hope it is useful, feel free to ask more.

Good luck.
