Brief Answer:
Do complete hormone profile. Need combined hormone pill.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,

Thanks for writing to us. Followings are my comments:

1) Period may be irregular or delayed for long time in PCOS. Sometimes, progesterone pill (like Deviry or Regestrone) is helpful to induce period. However, you need to take combined hormone pill for 3- 6 cycles (3 weeks ON and 1 week OFF) to regularize cycle.

2) I suggest to undergo complete hormone profile (like Serum estrogen, progesterone, LH/ FSH, serum TSH, Prolactin, Testosterone, DHEAS etc) to rule out underlying pathology. You can consult with your nearest OBGYN for proper guidance.

3) Take healthy diet with LOW carbohydrate and IRON supplements, do moderate exercise for physical fitness and to control body weight, avoid mental stress completely by regular meditation or yoga. Maintain a healthy life style always.

Hope, I have answered your query. Wish your good health and take care.

Brief Answer:
Do rest of the tests of hormone profile.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for follow up query. I have reviewed your attach reports.

1) All reports are within NORMAL range. Do rest of the tests of hormone profile like Serum estrogen, LH/ FSH, prolactin, progesterone, Testosterone, DHEAS etc.

2) Until then, you should await for your next period (3-5 days) as you have just completed your Regestrone course (on May 1). Another thing, you should continue above medications as prescribed.

Hope, it helps for your information. Good luck and take care. Review with test results.
