Patient's question:
On April 18th, it was the menstrual day. On April 26th, I had a fallopian tube surgery, which revealed left intestinal obstruction and right-side patency. Post-surgery, I received anti-inflammatory medication for 5 days. On May 9th and May 17th, I had unprotected intercourse. My menstrual cycle is generally normal, but now it's delayed by 4 days. I have mild lower abdominal pain, similar to what I feel during my period. Yesterday, I had a very small amount of white discharge, and pressing lightly on my chest causes pain. There are no other symptoms. I'm wondering if it could be pregnancy or related to the post-surgery effects?Doctor's answer:
If the menstrual period is delayed by more than seven days, you can first use a pregnancy test kit to check, as it may be possible to be pregnant.Guidance and suggestions: If you have already taken a pregnancy test and it shows no pregnancy, it may be considered menstrual irregularity. You can first take Yimucao Granules orally to regulate your condition. If there are blockages due to external factors, it is recommended to undergo a hysteroscopy.
