General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Tregestresl is an oral contraceptive pill which if taken regularly will cause you to have menstruation but will not help you ovulate and conceive.

You will need to have blood tests to make sure of the cause of the lack of menstrual bleeding for so long. The doctor has to make sure you are not in menopause (there are cases of premature menopause that happen at an earlier age).
So, some tests to do are:
- FSH, LH, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone levels in the blood
- TSH and FT4 for the thyroid function
- prolactin

I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal for further medical assistance.

Regards,

Dr. Antoneta Zotaj
