Brief Answer:
Not likely.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

Ovashield contains Clomiphene used to induce ovulation. The possible side effects include ovarian enlargement due to hyperstimulation, menorrhagia and abnormal menstrual pattern.

Delayed period is not the usual side effect. If you are sexually active during the course, you have chances of pregnancy.

You can get a HPT 3-7 days after the missed period with a fresh early morning sample of urine. Alternatively, you can get the estimation of the serum beta-hCG titres now to confirm/exclude pregnancy.

You can also get a trans-vaginal sonogram a week later to clarify the situation.

Hope your query has been clarified. Please feel free to contact for further information. I will be happy to help.

regards,
Shanti.V.
