I got married in Nov 2004 and had
irregular periods before marriage.After
marriage in convieced immediately in Feb
2005 unfortuantely had to terminate the
baby due to acarnia(brain and neck not
formed) in the 5th month(July 30th)and
then the dr scanned and told that no PCOD
and from July 30th i had regular
periods.We got all the tests done and
everything was normal except the karotype
result which showed translocation of
(8,18) in me and normal in my husband.But
me and my siblings are all very very
normal and no major abnormalities.The
genitic dr mentioned that I have only 50%
chances of a healthy pregnancy.We used to
have sex but never took risk as we wanted
to give a gap to recover.We never used any
condoms or pills it was calculated sex.My
last menstrual period(LMP) was Dec7th 2005
and my dr asked us to have sex on
13th,15th and 17th day and we did so and I
have not got my periods till date.I tried
4htp and all came out -ve and blood test
shwd hcg<2.However i feel some symptoms
like cramps in lower abdominal,back
ache,freq urination and bloating tummy.I
visited the dr and she asked me to take a
htp on 20th if -ve then start rogestrone
tablets for 5days.Please please let me
know if the test can be -ve still could be
pregnant.If not what these tablets are
for.
YOU CAN’T BE PREGNANT IF YOUR PREGNANCY
TEST(taken at least 10 days after
ovulation or, at most, 5 days before an
expected period) IS NEGATIVE. If you are
not pregnant, missing your period could be
caused by a hormonally active ovarian
cyst. If the egg-cell wasn’t expelled
from the Graph’s follicle (no
ovulation), the follicle can transform
itself into a follicle cyst that produces
estrogen. A high amount of estrogen causes
a delayed but profuse menstrual bleeding.
Rogesterone is a hormone-progesterone that
neutralizes the effect of estrogen on the
endometrial mucosa and allows menstruation
to occur. You will want to follow up
clsoely with your gynecologist to monitor
your body's reaction to the hormones and
your ovarian/hormonal health.
