Trying To Conceive, Delayed Period. Taken Nordette. Advise?

My husband and I´ve been trying to get pregnant. After so many years we decided to go for in vitro, so my doctor recommende nordette to program my period (it´s possible to mention that I´ve always been regular and no heavy periods)

I took Nordette for 21 days and I didn´t menstruate for about 10 days, so the doctor prescribed it again for 21 days. After 30 days from the last pill I haven´t started my period. I had a pregnancy test already (no pregnant). My husband and I are in different countries it hasn´t had intercourse.

My doctor said it´s the first time with a case like mine. Why i haven´t menstruated yet?

Confused

Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on healthcare magic.

Your symptoms are suggestive of pregnancy but not confirmatory.
Causes of missed periods include thyroid problem, stress, ovarian cyst, pregnancy.
I recommend her to get a urine pregnancy test once she misses her periods. Transvaginal scan is confirmatory of pregnancy.
Transvaginal scan also helps in detecting other causes of missed periods like ovarian cyst.

Hope this helps.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
