What Causes Stoppage In Periods?
My name is Kayleigh. I m 24 years old, with signs of strong testosterone. My previous doctor thought I had Pcos. My periods dissapeared for almost a year, with only slight spotting or light pink discharge here and there. Recently I got sick with a cold and my abdomen started to hurt. I ve been sexual active with no protection since then. My nipples hurt, I can t stand having them touched by anything. And every once an a while, I ll randomely bleed and pass a clot or two. Then the bleeding stops shortly after. Because I might have pcos, and don t know when I m ovulating. Is there a chance I might be pregnant? I ve had negative tests. I don t feel nautious or anything just sore nipples and random bleeding/blood clot passing.

you do seem to have hormone imbalance causing irregular periods and absence of ovulation. you should get pelvic sonogram done to check on the ovaries to confirm diagnosis of PCO. in addition hormone levels of testosterone and DHEA need to be measured.
