Brief Answer:
Poly Cystic Ovary should be ruled out.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,

Thanks for writing to us. Followings are my comments:

1) Some underlying causes of irregular late period are Poly Cystic Ovary, mental stress, emotional upset, hormonal imbalance, pelvic infection, over weight or sudden loss, irregular diet pattern, high prolactin etc.

I suggest to undergo some basic investigation to rule out the cause and confirm the diagnosis. Do check serum TSH also if you haven't done the test recently.

2) In this case, one pelvic ultrasound scan and complete hormone profile (like Serum estrogen, LH/FSH, progesterone, Prolactin, Testosterone, DHEAS etc) should be undergone. You can consult with your OBGYN for proper guidance.

3) Combined hormonal pills are the mainstay of treatment to regularize your cycle. It can be prescribed after reviewing test reports.

Take healthy diet with LOW carbohydrate and IRON supplements, do light to moderate exercise for physical fitness and to control body weight, avoid mental stress completely by regular meditation or yoga. Maintain a healthy life style always.

Hope, I have answered your query. Wish your good health and take care.

For future query, you can directly approach me through
