Is irregular menstruation a disease?

Patient's question:

Previously, my menstrual cycle was very regular. It's already been half a month this month, and I still haven't gotten my period. I have an IUD. Can I be sick?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, excluding the possibility of pregnancy, factors such as environmental changes, emotional fluctuations, and stress from study or work can all cause delayed menstruation. Some organic lesions can also lead to delayed menstruation. It is recommended to relax, observe closely, and if menstruation has not arrived after one week, it is advisable to undergo a sex hormone six-item test at a regular hospital to determine the cause. If necessary, progesterone-induced menstruation treatment can be administered under the guidance of a doctor.
