Hello. Welcome to HCM.
it is important for you to get the following tests as possibly you have hormonal imbalance
1. LH,
2. FSH,
3. Prolactin
4. Estrogen and progesterone
5. Serum Cortisol.
Also it would be beneficial to have an ultrasound of the pelvis for ovarian echotexture and presence of cysts if any. Based on these findings only, further course of action will be decided.
Take care.
