Can Missing Femodette For Days Be The Cause Of Painful Abdominal?

Hi I am on femodette, missed 4 tablets and so decided to let my period start and then take the tablets as usual. However, my period has not started, had one small show and then nothing. I have terrible pains in my womb area either side (left and right). Should I take a pregnancy test and what could the pain be. Thanks

Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic.
I have gone through your query.
I think I have understood your concern, I will try to suggest you the best possible treatment options.

1)First of all do not panic.

2)If you have not taken the tablets in the last 4 days, and have not missed in between then mostly there is no risk of pregnancy.

3) Still it is a better idea to get morning's first sample of urine tested for pregnancy.

4) Your pain can be due to menstruation itself- Dysmenorrhoea or due to PID- Pelvic Inflammatory disease.

For Dysmenorrhoea, you can take Tab MEFTAL SPAS as needed.

For PID, you can take a week long course of broad spectrum antibiotic like Cap Doxycycline 100 mg twice a day for 7 days.
Please keep private parts dry and clean.
Use of condom is advisable for a couple of weeks in addition to birth control pills, for hygiene purpose.

Thanks.
Wish you good health.
With regards
Dr Purushottam Neurgaonkar
