Does trigestrel pill posses any impact on menstrual cycle?
Patient: hi Doctor i realised about 2 weeks later that i was taking the Trigestrel pill,the other way around. can it affect my periods? because i havent received my period this month,and i havent been sexual active since end of June,but i got my period in July. Doctor: Hello,  Trigestrel is mainly used as an oral contraceptive pill although it is used for other causes like menstrual irregularity. It shouldn't affect the menstruation negatively.   But, sometimes due to hormonal changes or stress changes in the menstrual cycle are observed. Do not worry, there are other factors like stress which cause delayed menstruation.  I would suggest you wait for a few days and if this persists, do visit a gynecologist regarding this, depending on your history the doctor will ask you to get some tests done if needed.   Depending on this, the doctor will be able to guide you with appropriate treatment.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
