Hello XXXXXXX
I have read your reports.
You have been previously diagnosed as polycystic disease.
There may be several causes of irregular cycles.Thyroid disease,hyper prolactenemia,PCOS etc can all cause irregular menses.Now,its important that a complete hormone profile be done to determine any ovarian cause.Two causes may occur at the same time.You should get a serum LH,FHS,TESTOSTERONE,DHEA,EE2 LEVELS done.Its best to get these done on day 2 or 3 of your menses.Along with that serum T3,T4,TSH,PROLACTIN, should also be done.Accordingly your cabergolin dose should be adjusted.You blood sugar should be tested monthly.
Now your ultrasound suggests that you have PCOS.But there may be other hormonal factors involved.Continue the metformin and cabergolin till then.Its important to rule out premature ovarian failure.
Also if you need withdrawal bleeding then you need to take medication which a gynecologist can prescribe after examining you.You will bleed after that.Do the blood test on day 2 of your cycle.Then please do get back to me with the reports.
Do consult a gynaecologist for a prescription for the medicines and the tests.
