HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

There are different possible causes for irregular periods such as:(1) emotional stress
(2)physical stress or illness
(3) inadequate diet
(4)extreme physical activity
(5)abnormal levels of thyroid hormone
(6)high levels of another hormone called prolactin
(7)polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)

PCOS is diagnosed when at least 2 of the following are present: (1) irregular or delayed period
(2) ultrasound showing cyst on the ovaries
(3)signs and symptoms of increased levels of androgens. These are male hormones that are normally found in small quantities in females. The blood values may be increased and there may be hair on the face or chest, acne
There is effective treatment available.

If the other pregnancy test is negative. Your doctor may consider other blood tests and imaging to find the cause of your abnormal period.

I hope this helps
