Why were you taking them if you don't mind me asking? were you taking them after ovulation, possibly for a low progesterone issue? Or were you taking them to 'jump start' your period after being late?

Either way, for the most part, it won't delay your period. If you are going to start, you can start while you are still taking the progesterone. If you are taking it to 'jump start' your body needs to have the 'withdrawl' effects so it is best to give it a week before you call your doctor (and you are testing negative).

Have you tested? If not I suggest you do that. The progesterone will not effect the results.

I was taking them after ovulation to stop the spotting that occurs a week before my af and to help I guess boost the horomones that I lack. So Its now day 32 of my 28 day cycle with no signs of af. Which I thought was due to the pills, I wasnt clear on when to quit taking them, so I stopped on day 27. Now my boobs are so sore and I feel very sick but thought it could be the side effects of the meds bc on day 30 I had a bfn and with dr telling us we cant concieve naturally Im now ruling that out. When I talked to the dr he said it could be 2 days to two weeks till af comes so now im confused why you would give those to someone who is ttc bc now my cycle is off whack! I just want to cry uncontrollably in bed all alone life gets worse day by day it seems, and yet I never get accurate answers Crying
or Very sad
