Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Could you please explain what might happen if my period is delayed by 15 days and I'm not pregnant?Doctor's answer:
If menstruation is delayed, it may be due to factors such as poor rest, stress, gynecological inflammation, or endocrine disorders, all of which can lead to delayed menstruation. It is recommended to visit a hospital for tests including the six sex hormones and an ultrasound. Do not take medication blindly; once the cause is identified, targeted treatment should be administered. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects women's health but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to undergo routine examinations in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
