Hi!!
Regesterone ( norethindrone ) is a category X drug that is not safe in pregnancy.It causes masculinisation of the female fetus.In the male fetus,the effect is not known.
In your case you have not mentioned whether your cycles are routinely delayed or whether they were delayed this time and whether you were advised regesterone by your gynaecologist and after how many days of the missed period.The effects of regesterone are not seen even by ultrasound.But if taken in very early pregnancy before organogenesis,effects are negligible.

Hi!!
I would not be knowing about Ludhiana or any place away from Delhi.
Diet plan in pregnancy depends upon the body mass index and related comorbidities in the patient like diabetes,high blood presurre and also upon the family history of known illnesses
