What Could Be The Cause For Delayed Puberty?

I was born with under developed ovaries, the doctor I go to now has put me on birth control. I have not had my menstrual cycle yet. I have a twin sister who s a minute older and she has had her menstrual cycle since age 13. They tell me that I may never have children and I m 20 years old. Are there any others out there who have the same thing I do , and what can I do? Please I m at a loss thank you.

Hi.

I've gone through your query. I can understand your anxiety.

Delayed puberty might be due to hormonal disturbances, medical problems,genetic disorders etc. I advice you to,
- to access the levels of FSH/LH to rule out ovarian disease if any
- Hormonal injections (HCG) for 2-3months ( to stimulate the development of secondary sexual characteristics)
- tab. Cabergolin for a month

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Get well soon.

Regards,
Dr. Yogapriya V, General and family physician.
