HOW LONG CAN period be delayed?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Periods can get delayed by any number of days, from 30 days to 6 weeks. If next cycle starts from 28 +/- 7 days from the first date of last menstrual cycle then it is considered a normal cycle. Any delay more than it is considered abnormal.

View allI started my period on January 22 and was treated for endometriosis. My doctor advised me to take Meprate 10mg starting February 7, so I did, taking one tablet daily. I finished the course on February 16, which was the 8th day, but I haven't gotten my period yet. Should I wait longer, or could there be an issue?

I'm really worried because after having sex with my girlfriend, I gave her Unwanted 72. An hour later, she started having a headache. She felt better the next day, but then in the afternoon, her head began hurting again, this time not as bad. However, by nighttime, the pain got really intense. Could this be a side effect of the pill? What should I do to help her feel better?
Your girlfriend may be experiencing a side effect of Unwanted 72 emergency contraceptive pill. Headache is a common side effect of this medication. To help alleviate the headache, she can take a pain reliever such as Paracetamol (e.g. Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. It is important to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If the headache persists or becomes severe, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

Which tablet is used to get periods immediately?
Progesterones can be taken in few doses to induce periods but keep in mind that it is hormone pill with few side effects. So, it is better to not self medicate and consult with a doctor for prescription.
