I've been prescribed thyronorm tablets, and I'm a bit confused about when I can have other liquids or solid food afterwards. Do I need to wait for a specific amount of time, or is there a certain routine I should follow?

I've been taking Letrozole and CCQ as part of my cycle monitoring, and recently had a few hcg injections because my follicles weren't rupturing as expected. They finally ruptured on the 15th day. Then I took Duphaston from the 15th to the 25th day, but now it's Day 31 and I still haven't gotten my period. Is there a chance I could be pregnant this time? On my last cycle, I had no follicles and took Duphaston from the 19th day, getting my period on Day 33. What do you think?
