It could be that the hormones pills that you were on have messed your cycle up, but I would get your doc to do a blood pregnancy test to be sure.
Withdrawl from hormones can sometimes disrupt your body's ability to burn off calories, which is why many women gain weight at menopause. This could also explain your weight gain as well.
Double check with your doctor. Good Luck!
