Hello, Anon.
If you had protected sex (without mishap) and are yielding negative pregnancy results, this indicates you are not pregnant.
For the benefit of our readers, PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) is a hormonal disorder causing enlarged ovaries with small cysts on the outer edges. Symptoms of PCOS include menstrual irregularity, (late, missed, shorter or longer periods) as well as excess hair growth, acne, and obesity for some women. So, this is likely why your period is late. Treatment often includes birth control pills to normalize periods.
