Hello,
It is possible that the amount of progesterone you took is not sufficient to induce withdrawal bleeding. You have two options, wait for the period, or take another course of modus, this time for postponement of periods, up to 10 days. In view of lack of natural progesterone in polycystic ovarian syndrome, withdrawal bleeding may occur even after one week. Please get further suggestions from your doctor. Take care.
