hello , i m a 26year old married woman (being married for a year), and actively TTC for the past 6months. The last time i had my period was on 12th May, 2010. I m currently 14 days late on my period. All preg. tests come out negative. Could i still be pregnant? My doc. prescribed Primolut-N tab for me today, just to force my period to come. I m however, not comfortable to take the pill. shd i go ahead and take it? what if i m already pregnant? will it harm my unborn child?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.In my opinion, if there was any pregnancy then the urine pregnancy test would have shown up. Because the urine pregnancy test gives accurate results a week after missed period.The doctor usually prescribes Primolut N only after excluding the pregnancy. There are no side effects to pregnancy or fetus with Primolut N.So if you want, you can wait for spontaneous onset of periods as well. And to confirm the absence of pregnancy, serum B HCG testing or ultrasound can be done. If both are negative then the likelihood of pregnancy is very less.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards,Dr. Srilatha Myaka
