Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I m 19 years old. My period was due two days after I had sex. We used a condom and I took an ipill the day after to be safe. I still missed my period and as of now I m 1 week late. I took a home pregnancy test and it was negative. What should I do now?
Hello dear I understand your concern Your delayed period is due to hormonal imbalance caused by the I pill. I pill contain high progesterone and cause prolongation of second phase of the cycle. So it cause delay in period by 1-2 week. There is no chance of the pregnancy as you have did sex just 2 before the expected period date and it is completely safe period. Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise Wait for the period to come. If it will delay by more than 2 week then consult the gynecologist. Hope this may help you
