Hello,
As you are not having any period last 15 weeks and you are not pregnant as well then it could be due to hormonal imbalance. Firstly, get your Hb, thyroid profile and pelvic ultrasound to rule out the possible cause of your symptoms.
Hope you find it useful, feel free to ask for more information. Good luck and take care.

I have PCOS, but my cycles (30day)were regular for 6-8months untill XXXXXXX 2020. Last time I had intercourse was mid February. I tested at home on 17th April and it's negative. I have no symptoms too..
Is there a chance that I could still be pregnant?

Hello,
Urine pregnancy test though is accurate is not a confirmatory test of pregnancy. So though chances of pregnancy are not there in your case, I'd suggest to get your blood beta hCG levels to rule out pregnancy for sure.
