Prescribed Duphaston For Skipped Period. No Spotting Yet. Am I Pregnant?

i am 25 years old married and i consult my gynecology because of absense of menustration for last month. My doctor said that i am not pregnant and she asked me to take duphaston tablet for 12 days and wait for bleeding or spotting. If i got spotting, she told me to come again. But still i didnt get anything and my menustration is regular and i want to know the reason why it was happened? Also want to know am i really pregnant?

HELLO THERE.

THANKS FOR WRITING.

MENSES USUALLY START WITHIN 10DAYS AFTER STOPPING DUPHASTON.

IF IT IS MORE THAN TEN DAYS THAT YOU DID NOT MENSTRUATE AFTER STOPPING THE TABLET, YOU SHOULD DO A URINE TEST FOR PREGNANCY AGAIN. AT TIMES PREGNANCY TEST TURN POSITIVE LATE.

IF IT IS NEGATIVE THEN YOU NEED TO AN ULTRASOUND TO ASCERTAIN THE CAUSE OF DELAYED PERIOD WHICH CAN BE OVARIAN CYST, PELVIC INFECTION OR POLYCYSTIC OVARIAN DISEASE.

ALSO HORMONAL WORK UP MAY BE REQUIRED.

TAKE CARE.
