Brief Answer:
Rule out pregnancy if sexually active

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Greetings...

You need to rule out pregnancy if sexually active.
Or else you can wait.
Stress, strenuous activities, etc can delay.
Are you overweight?
If so, do get your thyroid function tested and a USG scan to rule out PCOD.

Let me know if I can assist you further
Regards

Thank you for taking the time to answer, I am not sexually active, nor stressed. I don't think I am overweight... I am 5ft and about 116lbs. Can I go to any clinic for a USG with a parent or can I go alone? If there's a possibility of having PCOD, is it curable and will it hinder my daily lifestyle?
