Ipill can sometimes affect your menstrual cycle and cause a delay in your period. Additionally, stress, hormonal changes, or other factors can also contribute to irregular menstrual cycles. After completing the course of Deviry, you may experience withdrawal bleeding, which is similar to a period.It can take a few days to a week after finishing the medication for this bleeding to occur.

I have irregular periods sometimes even in 2 months. I had anal intercourse and there was no ejaculation just precum might be there but I took bath after that. I took regestrone 5mg for 3 days one tab per day and got light bleed after 3-4 days. Am i pregnant?

Irregular me­nstrual cycles have various potential cause­s, like stress leve­ls or hormonal fluctuations. Precum may sometimes carry spe­rm cells, though the pregnancy risk is minimal. Some­ light bleeding might occur after taking Re­gestrone, as it helps re­gulate cycles. If concerne­d about a potential pregnancy, consider taking a pre­gnancy test.

I had my period on 7 january. On 12th january i had unprotected sex, but my partner didn't cum inside. i took ipill on 13 January. Again I got periods on 19 January. I haven't yet got periods on February. Is there any concern regarding pregnancy? or is it just delayed period?

Female | 28

There could be a delay in menstrual cycle because of many reasons like stress, hormonal problems and some medical conditions. Nevertheless, you had no protection thus pregnancy is always a possibility for you. A pregnancy test and a visit to the gynecologist will be necessary for proper evaluation. They help you in knowing what to do and also give medical advice.
