Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I don't want to get pregnant, but recent symptoms such as: missed period, stomach acid, etc., show negative on the test paper. When is the most appropriate time to go to the hospital for a check-up?Doctor's answer:
Regarding the situation you mentioned, it is recommended to wait a few days to see if your period comes. If it still hasn't arrived, there is a high possibility of pregnancy. If necessary, you can consider taking a pregnancy test. Generally, pregnancy can be detected about 10 days after conception. You can use early pregnancy test strips or undergo a blood HCG test. Irregular menstruation not only affects women's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a routine check-up. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. In daily life, it is important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
