Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. To tackle your problem, I have to ask you some questions:

1. Are you having any thyroid problem?

2. Are you overweight or have any facial hair?

3. Any history of unprotected intercourse?

If the answer is no to these questions, then I would advise you to keep a menstrual record. Take withdrawal bleeding with help of tablet Deviry 10 mg (Medroxyprogestrone) BD for five days. Wait for seven days till bleeding happens. Please revert after these tests.
