What Is The Cause Of Delay In Period With Infertility Issue?
Hello...I am quiet worried right now because I still didn't have my period yet. I been delayed since February so it's been 2 months now. I am 38 years old, I have hypo thyroid issue and I am seing a doctor. I never had surgery before and I don't take any medication. I had an IUI last year because I have an infertility issue. And feel sad also because I gained a lot of weight right now. I am going for doctor's check up on march 24, 2014. I am confuse with some of the discomfort I felt on my body. I wanted to stay healthy and worried about the results of my check up.

Hello and welcome to HCM.
I am Dr Nilajkumar a consultant gynecologist and I will be helping you in your queries.
The delay in period is most likely due to the hypothyroidism. So also the weight gain.
Please get your thyroid levels checked and adjust the dose of medicine for thyroid if needed.
If the thyroid is Ok other reasons may be pregnancy, imbalance in other hormones like prolactin, FSH, LH, and ovarian cysts. Stress and severe exercise also delay periods.
So get these evaluated if thyroid is ok.
Do not worry. Once the cause is found treatment will help you out of the condition.
Hope I was able to answer the query.
Thanks for using HCM.
Have a good day.
