Patient's question:
Over the past year, I have carefully observed that my menstrual cycle has been delayed by five to six days each month. Gradually, the time has moved quickly, and I always feel uneasy. It's a pity that this phenomenon is a symptom of irregular menstruation. I should not take medicine to regulate my body. Is this a symptom of irregular menstruation?Doctor's answer:
Menstruation arriving early or being delayed is normal within a week, so it doesn't count as a recurrence of menstrual disorder within that period and can be adjusted normally. During menstruation, strenuous exercise should be avoided, and extremely cold, spicy, or irritating foods should not be consumed, otherwise it can indeed affect menstruation and cause abdominal pain. The specific condition needs to be confirmed through a careful examination to determine the appropriate treatment method. If menstruation is consistently delayed each time, it proves that her menstrual cycle is actually more than 30 days, not exactly 30 days, which is normal.
