Hi!!
If your pregnancy test is negative( home kit),then you should still get a blood test to rule out pregnancy.This is called a serum beta hcg test and can be done in any routien laboratory any time of the day.This test if value less tahne 5 will confirm that there is no pregnancy.
Your period can also be delayed due to PCOD, like you said that the doctor said that the eggs were not ruptured in this cycle.If the pregnancy beta hcg test is negative ,take withdrawal medication of meprate and start siphene again according to your doctor advice.

Even after taking siphine tablets , there will be a chances for delay in getting periods (if no pregnancy)? Is it not for regulating periods too?
