I have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOD) and usually take Meprate to help regulate my periods, but after missing a period last month, I took Dulton L; now that it has been 7 days since I finished the medication and my period still hasn't started, should I wait a few more days, and is this delay a cause for concern?
After finishing hormonal medications like Dulton L or Meprate (medroxyprogesterone), it is quite common for your period to take 7 to 10 days?and sometimes up to 14 days?to arrive, especially with PCOS. Since it has been 7 days, I recommend waiting another 3 to 5 days. If you are sexually active, please take a home pregnancy test to rule that out. If your period still hasn?t started after 14 days, consult your gynecologist to safely plan your next steps.
