Q: I am a 26 years old married women suffering from irregular menses. My periods were irregular when I was single but they have become very irregular after marriage. I get my periods 15 to 20 days late than the expected date. For treating this, my gynaecologist has prescribed me to take Folinal, Duphaston and m2 tone fort for three months. I have been trying to get pregnant for the last four months. Can I conceive while being on these medicines?

A:No, you will not conceive, while on these medicines, but also till the period becomes regular. So, first have your menses regular and then plan for pregnancy. You can also get an ultrasound screening for ovulation studies to see why conception is not occurring and your periods may be irregular for the same reason. If there is no egg formation, treatment with clomid, may hurry up the process of conception and menses. Please follow up with your specialist and be patient too.
