Brief Answer:
You are mostly meenopausal

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXX,

I hope I have spelt your name correctly, if not please correct me.

At the age of 53 years if you have not had your menses for last 6 years, you have attained menopause. So the chances of your being pregnant are almost nil. Blood tests for FSH, LH and Oestrogen will clarify the situation. Please get this tests done and upload the reports for my review.

Still if you want to have confirmation about your pregnancy status, you may get pregnancy test done on your urine.

The hormonal levels also will give a clue about your capacity to conceive at this age.

Oxycodone is an opioid painkiller had has no effect on the conception.

This should resolve your dilemma; still however, if you want any more information, I am always available for you, XXXXX.
