Brief Answer:
Pregnancy needs to be tested.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The chances of being pregnant are there. You can do a urine test or blood test for B-hcg to exclude/confirm pregnancy.
If the test comes out negative, then the delay in periods is due to PCOD. Your periods need to be regularized first before starting with Ovofer for ovulation.
Since your Duoluton L tablets are finished you need to consult an infertility specialist for proper investigations and further treatment.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.

Brief Answer:
At 5 days overdue.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
Pregnancy can be detected by urine test when your periods are overdue by more than 5 days. You can test your urine again now using an early morning sample of urine.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
