Hello dear
Understand your concern
Please confirm the pregnancy by Blood HCG/USG scan as sometime UPT give false negative result.
Other causes of delay in period are: hormonal imbalance, stress, excessive weight gain/loss, thyroid disorder, ovarian dysfunction/PCOS, endometrial pathology, fibroid, endometriosis, high prolactin, leutal phase defect.
I advised you to consult the gynecologist and need following investigations:
Full hormone profile, USG, endometrial biopsy, Ovarian follicle study, Blood sugar.
After diagnosis take proper treatment. Meanwhile do regular stretching and relaxation exercise 45 minutes in morning, eat healthy diet, avoid stress, eat fresh fruits like papaya, orange, Banana with curd , pomegranate,and pineapple.
Drink lots of fluid. Gentle breast massage with primrose oil, apply liquid base lotion on nipple.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
