Doctor I already wait for 5 days but after 5 days, I didn't get my periods. Should I go for pregnancy test or ultrasound??
Brief Answer:
No need for scan or more pregnancy test.
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I have gone through the scan.
There is no question of pregnancy.
The ultrasound clearly states that you have polycystic ovaries, that is causing irregular and delayed periods.
Please let me know a few more details.
What is your height and weight ?
Did you always have regular cycles before August ?
When was the last time you had unprotected sex ?
Have you got blood tests done for polycystic ovarian disease ?
Looking forward to hearing from you.

i missed 4 days tablets. After 17th i have not taken diane 35
Brief Answer:
No point in taking Diane 35 now.
Detailed Answer:
Missing 4 tablets means that you are not protected at all this month from pregnancy.
There is no point in taking remaining tablets since there will no benefit , having missed 4 tablets.
SO this month, if you wish to avoid pregnancy, please use condoms for the rest of your cycle, then start a new pack of Diane 35 after your next periods.
DO not be scared about the act of unprotected sex which occurred on 17th October, because at that time, you would not have been ovulating, and hence, there is no chance of pregnancy from that act of intercourse.
Take care.
