Suggest Remedy For Missed Period
Question: My wife's date is over due by 12-14 days now. She has been taking all her medicines regularly. What should be done to get periods back to normal? She is also reporting headache and committing for last 4 days even though taking her medicines properly.
Brief Answer:
Do home pregnancy test first. Follow other advices.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for writing to us. Followings are my comments:
1) Do one home pregnancy test at the earliest to rule out possible pregnancy. Review with test result.
2) Sometimes, period may be delayed for 1-2 weeks with H/O PCOS and thyroid problem. Hormonal imbalance and mental stress are associated factors.
I suggest her to take DUPHASTON 10 mg (Dydrogesterone) twice daily for 5 days to induce period (in case of NEGATIVE test). She will get her period within 5-7 days after cessation of medicines.
3) She must take a healthy balanced diet with more fresh fruits and vegetables. Low carbohydrate diet is preferable. Continue all medicines regularly as per her doctor's recommendation.
4) Do light to moderate exercise for physical fitness and to reduce or control body weight. Avoid mental stress completely by regular meditation or yoga. Maintain a healthy life style. These will help to regularize monthly cycle.
Hope, it helps for your information. Good luck and take care.
