Hi doc! I am 40 year old lady with two kids (caesarean) . My menstrual cycle has been quite irregular for past few months. I was advised Meprate by my doctor last month as i did not get my periods 23 days after the due date. my date last month was 16 th nov. This month I have to travel in last week of dec. So I took Meprate from 10th to 14th dec to ensure that I get my periods on time. Will I haav my perids on time? Does Meprate have any side effects? Does it also lead to weight gain? Pls help asap...
