In this specific cycle, because no dominant follicle developed by day 19, the likelihood of achieving pregnancy is very low, as ovulation is unlikely to occur. However, please don't lose heart. This is a common challenge with PCOD, and it simply means this particular dosage or medication (clomiphene citrate/Siphene) may need adjustment. Your doctor can explore options like increasing the dose, trying letrozole, or adding other treatments while continuing metformin and myo-inositol. This is just a step in your journey, and many women find success with a modified approach.

What should I do if my period has not started three to four days after finishing a five-day course of Deviry?

After finishing a five-day course of Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate), it typically takes about 3 to 7 days?and sometimes up to 14 days?for your period (withdrawal bleed) to start. Since it has only been three to four days, your body just needs a little more time. I suggest waiting another week. If your period does not arrive within 10 to 14 days after your last dose, or if there is any chance of pregnancy, please take a home pregnancy test and consult your healthcare provider to discuss the next steps.

Is it normal that I still haven't started my period nine days after finishing a five-day course of Deviry, and could my slightly underactive thyroid (TSH level of 6) or starting Thyronorm be causing this delay?

It is actually quite common for your period to take up to 10 to 14 days to arrive after finishing medroxyprogesterone acetate (Deviry). Your slightly underactive thyroid (TSH of 6) and starting levothyroxine (Thyronorm) can also temporarily affect your menstrual cycle as your body adjusts to the hormonal changes. I recommend waiting a few more days. If you are sexually active, taking a simple home pregnancy test is a good first step to rule that out. If your period doesn't start within 14 days of finishing the medication, please reach out to your doctor for guidance.

My wife stopped taking her birth control pills and Deviry on May 1st due to bleeding, missed her expected period on April 27th, and took an emergency contraceptive (i-pill) on May 12th; when can she safely start taking Femilon, is it safe to have sex before then, and is there still a risk of her getting pregnant?

Yes, there is still a risk of pregnancy, especially since her cycle is currently irregular. Before starting Femilon (desogestrel/ethinylestradiol), your wife should take a pregnancy test 14 to 21 days after taking the i-pill (levonorgestrel) to ensure she isn't pregnant. Once pregnancy is ruled out, she can safely start Femilon, ideally on the first day of her next period. Please use barrier methods like condoms if you have sex before she starts the pills, and for the first seven days of taking Femilon, to stay fully protected.

Why hasn't my period started after taking Deviry 10 mg for five days, and could this be related to my irregular periods and gaining 10 kilograms over the past year?

Bleeding typically starts 3 to 10 days after you finish taking your last dose of Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate), rather than during the course. Please give your body a few more days to respond. Your irregular periods and the 10-kilogram weight gain could indeed be linked. Hormonal imbalances, such as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) or thyroid issues, often cause both weight changes and irregular cycles. I highly recommend speaking with your doctor for a hormonal evaluation to help get you some answers and peace of mind.

What should I do if my period is 45 days late and my cycles have been irregular for the past few months, even though my last period only started after taking Deviry tablets?

First, please take a home pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy, as this is always the initial step when a period is delayed. Since your last cycle was induced by Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate) and irregularity persists, your body may be experiencing a hormonal imbalance, which is quite common and highly manageable. I gently advise consulting a gynecologist rather than repeating the medication on your own. They can run simple tests, like a hormone panel or an ultrasound, to find the root cause and help restore your natural rhythm.

How many days after finishing my five-day course of Deviry should I expect my period to start?

After finishing your five-day course of Deviry (medroxyprogesterone), you can generally expect your period to start within 3 to 7 days. However, for some women, it can take up to 10 to 14 days for the bleeding to begin. Try not to worry, as this variation is very common. If your period does not start after two weeks, or if you have any concerns, please feel free to reach out to your healthcare provider for guidance.
