What Causes Delay In Periods Despite Taking Ovaa Shield Capsule?

Hello doctor,
Its been 1 year 5 months since I got married. I'm 26 years old. I'm having pcod and now trying to conceive. My gynaecologist advised me to take ovaa shield from d3. My lmp is 19.01.2018 & I was supposed to get my period on 15.2.2018 as per the ovaa shield 28day cycle but yet I didn't get periods.. I have been experiencing periods cramp from past 3 days and feeling restless too... Does ovaa shield cause delayed periods?? Or should I need to check pregnancy test..if so when should I take home test..

Hello,

First of all, do not panic. Ova shield contains Clomiphene citrate and some other ingredients that promote egg formation- ovulation. If you have a history of regular cycles, then please wait for the expected date of menses. If you have done follicle study from day ten of the cycle, then you can expect the periods fourteen days after ovulation date.

So I will suggest you wait for five days, meaning till 24 February, if you still don't get your periods, then please get morning's first sample of urine tested for pregnancy. In case of any doubt blood, beta HCG test and ultrasound will be of help.

For PCOS - polycystic ovaries syndrome, lifestyle changes are a must. Please opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen. Start on Folic acid and vitamin B 12 supplements regularly. It helps to prevent various complications during conception, pregnancy, and childbirth.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Purushottam Neurgaonkar
