Brief Answer:
Not pregnant.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Your beta HCG is too low and is not suggestive of pregnancy. The increased levels of prolactin is the cause of delay in periods. You can consult a gynecologist and start with bromocriptine and progesterone therapy to get a withdrawal bleeding and to again normalize the raised prolactin levels.
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.
