Patient's question:
On the 28th of last month, my period was delayed and came on the 1st of the previous month. It hasn't arrived on the 1st of this month yet, and I still haven't gotten it.Doctor's answer:
Menstrual DelayNormally, menstruation is regular, but it is delayed by more than 7 days, or even occurs every 40 to 50 days, and this happens consecutively for more than two menstrual cycles. However, the amount of menstrual flow remains normal. In women with ovulation, the basal body temperature shows a biphasic pattern, but the follicular phase is prolonged, and the high-temperature phase is lower. In women without ovulation, the basal body temperature shows a monophasic pattern.
The occurrence of menstrual irregularities not only affects a patient's life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecological department in the hospital for a vaginal discharge examination. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Additionally, it is important to pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
