Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have missed my periods. Kindly help me.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Better assessment can be done if you share the details of your last period, your cycle length, and whether you are sexually active or otherwise, along with other details.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

My last period date was middle of the last month. I had intercourse at the start of this month and I was not sexually active for the past six to seven months. I did the pregnancy test last night, and it shows positive. Please suggest to me what should I do to get my periods. I have been eating papaya and other hot stuff to clean the system, but it is not working. Please help me with some medication.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern and will surely help you. Most likely, you were ovulating near the start of this month with the last menstrual period (LMP) on middle of the previous month. So if it was unprotected intercourse, there is a likelihood of pregnancy. I suggest you do a urine pregnancy test with the first urine of the day tomorrow morning and do not drink too much fluid before the test. I also suggest you adhere to the guidelines for the timing part of it.

Further, if that is positive, I suggest you visit a local obstetrician and gynecologist to further manage your condition and not to take self-medication. If the test is negative, I will suggest medicines for a period; otherwise, it is not recommended.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
