Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have missed my period by two months and usually, I have irregular periods. I have been taking the tablet Ovral L for three months. Also, I am taking the tablet Deviry. It has been eight days and still, I have not got my period. Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I am here to help you get the best medical advice.

If you have missed your periods for two months and have not had a period for eight consecutive days, it is possible that you are pregnant. It is important to take a pregnancy test to confirm this. If you are not pregnant, there could be several other factors that could contribute to irregular periods. Some common causes of irregular periods include:

  1. Hormonal imbalances: Hormonal fluctuations can cause irregular periods. This could be due to conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), thyroid disorders, or menopause.
  2. Weight fluctuations: Rapid weight gain or weight loss can disrupt the menstrual cycle, leading to irregular periods.
  3. Stress: High levels of stress can interfere with the menstrual cycle, causing irregular periods.
  4. Medications: Certain medications, such as antidepressants or hormonal contraceptives, can affect the menstrual cycle and can lead to irregular periods.
  5. Medical conditions: Certain medical conditions, such as endometriosis or fibroids, can cause irregular periods.

If you have not been pregnant and have not identified any other underlying factors that may be contributing to your irregular periods, I suggest you consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance on how to manage your symptoms. They may recommend lifestyle changes, medications, or other treatments to help regulate your menstrual cycle.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
