Periods not occurring
Hi. My last period came on 18 July. It was supposed to occur around 18 August but haven't. I was on medication for one month( Gluconorm and Andectone) because of facial hair(risen male testosterones). Doctor asked to loose weight along with medicines. I am afraid if that is the reason for periods not happening. Shall I do severe workout to induce?

The delayed period is not because of the drugs that have been prescribed to you. Neither would severe workout work.
It seems you are started on treatment for PCOS. The drug of choice in your case would be COCP. And if it doesn't work then Sporanolactone. Metformin has a limited role in metabolic components of PCOS. Kindly share all your lav reports
