Q: Hypogonadism and PCOS
asked by: DoctorQuestion on July 18th, 2008
I am wanting to know if there is any way I coud be pregnant. I am going on 4 months w/out a period. My fiance has had a vasectomy over 5 years ago so I don't know the odds. I have all of the pregnancy symptoms, I have gained weight in my midsection and I stay bloated. If not pregnant then what could be wrong?

Current medical status: I have been seen by my family Dr in June. She did a blood test and urine test to check for pregnancy and both were negative. She checked my endocrine system for hormonal issues but they were fine.
Current medical treatment: My family Dr mentioned PCOS but she said that my hormone levels were not low enough to cause me not to have my period. No treatment as of yet.

You are probably not pregnant because both the urine and blood pregnancy tests were negative.
You probably have a kind of hypogonadism. PCOS is also one of the possible reasons for your condition.
