Diagnosis With Polysistic Ovaries Syndrome. Missed Periods. Taken Duphastone. But Not Getting Periods. Suggestions?

Hi I am a 22 year old female diagnosed with polysistic ovaries syndrome. The only symptom I have of the syndrome is irregular periods.I don't take any medications for my syndrome, but when my period is late for a month or two I use duphaston. Usually, I take 2 pills for a period of 5 days and then get my period in the next 5 days. I have finished the course of pills almost 10 days ago and I still did not get my period. I am not getting any PMS symptoms except some mild period cramps (I'm not even sure if they are period cramps). Please help, I am pretty worried!

Hi there,
Thanks for writing to us,
In case of PCOS, it is usual to get irregular periods . the ovulation happens rarely, which is due to irregular hormonal balance, it sometimes happens even with the intake of tablets. For an normal menstruation there has to be an successful ovulation in the previous cycle,otherwise there is minimal or no means us.
If problem persists visit an nearby physician.
Take care.
