Is it menstrual irregularity that my girlfriend's period is delayed?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I am a very meticulous person, and I remember every move my girlfriend makes. This includes the days of her menstrual cycle. However, over the past two months, I've noticed that her period has become very irregular. It's always delayed by about a week. Hello. Is it possible that my girlfriend's delayed period is due to menstrual disorders?

Doctor's answer:

The menstrual cycle of a woman can be delayed by up to one week, which is considered a basically normal. If it is delayed by one week every time, it is not a problem. However, if it is irregular, either coming earlier or later, it indicates menstrual disorders. It is important to maintain regular rest and ensure sufficient deep sleep; relax your mind and avoid excessive stress; and maintain a proper weight to prevent obesity or being overly thin. Gynecological diseases are prone to occur, and during medication, women should pay attention to their self-care.
