Brief Answer:
Detailed answer below

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, thanks again for having faith in my advice. Delayed periods are likely due to hormonal disturbances of PCOS, however first do get a urine pregnancy test to check whether you are pregnant or not.
If the result is negative, then you should continue your workout and diet to reduce weight, and can safely wait for the periods till 15-20 th of August.
If you don't get periods till then, then you can take progesterone tablets for inducing periods. Gradual weight loss will lead to resumption of normal menstrual cycles.
Hope you found the answer helpful. Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards,
Dr Deepti Verma.
