What illness is it if menstruation is delayed by 15 days?

Patient's question:

Menstruation delayed for 15 days, sometimes feeling lower abdominal pain, breast tenderness

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it may be due to a deficiency of cold in the body or delayed menstruation caused by cold, with insufficient nourishment from blood deficiency. The deficiency of Qi and blood in the Chong and Ren meridians leads to emptiness of the blood sea after menstruation. Combined with Qi deficiency and blood stagnation, there is a lack of power to circulate, which triggers amenorrhea. The prescription should include Angelica sinensis, white peony root, and prepared rehmannia to nourish blood and regulate menstruation; safflower, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Curcuma zedoaria, and Cyperus rotundus to activate blood circulation. It is recommended to use modified Weng Jing Tang for treatment. The occurrence of menstrual disorders not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecological department in the hospital for a check-up, identify the cause, and receive symptomatic treatment. In daily life, it is important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
