Hi,

In PCOD, though menstrual cycles appear regular, ovulation may not be regular. In your case, delayed ovulation is perhaps the reason for delayed pregnancy confirmation. There is corpus luteum deficiency observed with PCOD and hence progesterone supplements have been shown to be useful to sustain the pregnancy. Please go for regular follow up and follow your doctor's instructions. Eat healthy and take adequate rest. Everything is going to be well.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shanti Vennam, OBGYN
