Hi,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern
Meprate is a progesterone preparation &is liable to cause delay in period. .
Regesrone is also a progesterone like Drug... it might have been given when the withdrawal bleeding after stopping Meprate pills... so you got scanty bleeding on 2nd day of Regestrone pills.
You should stop taking regestrone &wait for bleeding to come ... it may take 8-10 days .
See your gynecologist after you finish bleeding.
Thanks.
