Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Health Q&A
Periods delayed

My periods are regular each month and last periods date was 9th April, we had intercourse on 8th April and immediately next day I had bleeding which lasted for 2 days only. Usually it lasts for 4 days. Since then I don't have my periods yet. I took UPT today and there is a faint line on it. Could it be possible that I am pregnant? Also last month my ENT gave me steroid Defza 6 for throat infection twice a day for 5 days. Could that be reason for delay in periods? I am 41 years old. We have tried to conceive naturally and through IVF in the last few years and have not been able to conceive just fyi. Had 2 early miscarriages at 8 weeks.
