Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
This history cannot diagnose pregnancy. The only way now to confirm would be to have a home urine pregnancy test with an early morning first sample of urine. If in doubt, it can be confirmed with blood serum beta HCG. This can diagnose the smallest of pregnancies anywhere in the body.
But seeing your body mass index, you could have PCOD, and due to the hormonal imbalance, you can have irregular bleeding like this.
PCOD (polycystic ovaries) is a congenital condition. I mean, it is a genetically programmed condition. You get it from your parents. When you suddenly put on weight, this cholesterol is converted into estrogen hormone (if I may simulate- have not you seen obese men developing breast and in young obese girls, who develop periods at a younger age - they all have high levels of estrogen hormone and female hormone). In your body, too, when fat, which is a store for tomorrow, is more than normal, this is converted to the hormone that tips the balance between FSH (from the brain) and the ovarian hormone. FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone), as the name suggests, stimulates follicles from the ovary, but once the follicle is big enough to ovulate, the FSH is suppressed by the same estrogen hormone from the ovary. But when the same estrogen hormone is coming from fat, the brain is confused, and follicle growth stops early at a smaller follicle size and will not rupture. In the next scan, you will see all these follicles as polycystic ovary disease. This is usually associated with Obesity, irregular cycles, no periods for a few months and later heavy periods with clots and fleshy masses, spotting on and off, Thyroid abnormality and prolactin problem indirectly.
You develop that extra pad of fat around the mid-segment of the body, especially the waist, thighs and breasts, with no fat beyond the elbow and knees. Excessive body hair growth, hair fall, a dark shade over the lower half of the face, acne, oily face skin, black skin over the back of the neck, inner thighs & under the surface of the breast. May have a family history of diabetes, especially with your father or his family.
This will not allow ovulation to occur at the time, so you cannot get pregnant till treated. It also increases your chances of early pregnancy abortions. But this has a solution. Your weight has to be
Weight (in kgs)= Height (in cms)-100.
Your expected weight is 174-184 pounds.
Once you reduce weight to the normal range, you will not need any medicine to get periods or to get pregnant, and pregnancy will be healthy.
To reduce weight -
- No fasting, no junk food, fast food, red meat, and reduced snacks in between meals.
- Have low-calorie food with high proteins.
- Regular exercise (especially for the waist and hip area), aerobics, yoga, brisk walking (swing your hands well), try to reduce 1 to 2 pounds per month. Do not hurry on weight reduction. It will be difficult to maintain.
As soon as you reduce at least 10 pounds, you will see changes. I know it is not possible to come to this range, but even a slight fall in weight will surely help you not only to get pregnant but also to continue a healthy pregnancy. Hope I have clarified your query, do write back if you have any more queries.
All the best.
Thank you.
