PCOS, Missing Periods, Having Pregnancy Symptoms. Negative Test Result. Suggestions?

Hi, I suffer from polycystic ovaries and this month I have missed my period, it was due on the 17th, I have never missed a period apart from when I was pregnant with my son. Lately I have been getting a few pregnancy symptoms, like fatigue, headaches, constipation. I have had a pulling feeling in my lower tummy and for the past few days I have had aching where my uterus is, its not painful, just a dull ache. Ive done a pregnancy test on Saturday and it was negative so I don't know what to do? Any ideas or suggestions? Thank u

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The negative pregnancy test with delayed periods is suggestive of a hormonal imbalance causing a delay in the periods. The symptoms that you are having are also related to this. Do consult your gynecologist for hormonal treatment.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.

Hello,

Thanks for posting on HCM,

Well doing a pregnancy test and it coming out negative does not mean that you are not actually pregnant but should consider doing another pregnancy test in a couple of weeks or get a beta HCG testing done in the clinic or hospital.
Your symptoms are not necessarily pregnancy symptoms and could be as a result of another problem such as infection (e.g UTI), IBS, acute PID etc.
You will need to see a gynobs as soon as you can for exams and testing.
