Hello and welcome,

If you suspect pregnancy, there is no urgency to take regesterone. I suggest that you wait for another 2 weeks, repeat a urine test using the first morning urine sample. If the test is still negative, pregnancy is less likely. If you are still in doubt, get an ultrasound done at that time and then you may take regesterone if the ultrasound is negative.

If the problem of irregular periods persists, then you may need to do additional test like hormonal profile to look for the cause.

Hope this satisfies your query.
