Since your pregnancy test is negative, there are a few common reasons for this delay. With PCOS, your body's natural estrogen levels might be quite low, meaning the uterine lining is too thin to shed easily after taking Meprate (medroxyprogesterone acetate). Additionally, hormonal imbalances associated with PCOS and weight can sometimes extend the timeline for a withdrawal bleed up to two to three weeks. The bloating you are feeling is also a common side effect of progesterone. I recommend waiting a few more days and contacting your gynecologist for a quick check-in if it doesn't arrive soon.
