Period after a failed IVF

I just underwent a failed IVF in Feb. 9th and I got my period two weeks lateron Feb. 23rd confirming the unsuccess of the IVF, and since then, I never get my period again which is about almost one month and Half!!. I took Dydrogesterone (Duphaston) for 5 days to help me get it faster but it did not!, now I am taking 2mg estradiol with 10 mg dydrogesterone (Femoston). I am soo sad and frustrated, please, help me if any one knows if the delay is normal or not?? and how long I should wait for my period?? or should I see a DR. to check if everything is normal??? please, don't ignore my questions.
Thank you in advance!!

I had a failed IVF years ago (HCG started to go up then down and a lot of bleeding), my periods came back quickly after the IVF bleeding.

I recently had a D&C and it took forever for my periods to come back - 6 weeks. And when they came back, I almost missed them because they were so light, just brown blood and not even a pad a day.

Our body react differently after a loss or major hormonal change, try not to be stressed: your body will bounce back!! And an optimistic note: I conceived naturally my baby a few years after this missed IVF.

I had a failed fet in feb. got my period on the 19th and finally got one yesterday. I had kept in touch with my doc, went in for labs a couple time and had an ultrasound which showed a cyst. My doctor said the labs came back indicating my period was coming soon it didn't so I was prescribed provera 10 mg for five days and instructed to wait ten days after the last pill for a period. I finally got it last night. I've never had problems like this but was told all the fertility meds mess up your system. Call your doctor and see what they advise for you. I know I stressed a lot about it which didn't make things any better.
Best of luck to you
