What Causes Irregular Menstruation In An Obese Person?

default
Posted on Wed, 23 Dec 2015
Question: I am not getting periods. I had my last period on 6th October after that i just saw spotting in month of November. I am worried since i consulted a gynecologist last month and did ultrasound and thyroid test done and the results were good no problems as such . Doctor said i may be having irregular period due to weight and asked me to follow a healthy life style . She prescribed me Normoz tabs twice a day for 3 months for a regular period and said it will help in weight loss since i am 5ft7inch and weight of 86kgs . I want to get period as soon as possible because later this month my fiance will be visiting XXXXXXX and for obvious reasons i don't want my period during that time i.e. from 23 to 28 December. Kindly suggest me some safe medicine to induce periods now so that during that time i will be safe without any period and can have a good time with my fiancé.

Brief Answer:
You can take progesterone after consultation.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concerns fully.
You can take primolut- n to prepone your period but it is a prescription drug and you have to consult a Gynecologist for dosage and prescription.
Usually we are giving it for 3 days and than stop,period will resume within a week after stopping the medication,so you can take it accordingly.
Hope found useful, feel free to discuss more information.
Good luck.
