Hi 24x7tushar
I have read your question,
Generally ,delayed periods mean pregnancy and since you have taken regestrone and your periods did not return even after sufficient dosage .
It seems like you are already pregnant ,hence i suggest you to stop taking regestrone and have your pregnancy test done .
I suggest you to consult a gynecologist for further medical guidance.


lWishing you a good health,
