What are the reasons for delayed menstruation?

Patient's question:

Arrived on the 13th last month, but it was delayed by one day. It's already the 19th this month and it hasn't arrived yet. Sometimes I have lower abdominal pain, what could be the reason?

Doctor's answer:

If you have had sexual activity without using contraception, you should be cautious about whether the menstrual delay is due to pregnancy. If you are not pregnant, there are many other reasons for menstrual delay, such as long-term overwork, irregular living habits, and excessive fatigue. In this case, it is usually recommended to wait a few days for the menstrual period to arrive. Gynecological diseases are a common gynecological condition. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients pay close attention to maintaining external genital cleanliness and changing underwear frequently.
