Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
Congratulations on your marriage. PCOD makes your periods irregular and hence difficult to predict. Use of Oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) will not only offer you protection from unwanted pregancy but will also keep your PCOD in control. It is hard to predict if the current missed period is due to PCOD or pregnancy but definitely there is a chance for the latter and it would be a good idea to get a urine pregnancy test done using a home kit.
