If your period doesn't come but you're not pregnant, what should you do?

Patient's question:

I had my period on the 8th of last month, but I haven't had it this month. I've taken early pregnancy tests many times, and they all show that I'm not pregnant. During this time, I've been especially careful. Could you please tell me what could be the reason? Because I think I had a medication-induced abortion around the end of August and had a uterine clearance procedure.

Doctor's answer:

The delay in menstruation is primarily caused by two factors: pregnancy and menstrual disorders. Since your period has been delayed for more than 7 days, it is recommended to have a blood HCG test at the hospital. If it is not pregnancy, it is likely menstrual disorders. You can have a six-hormone test to confirm the cause of the menstrual disorders and receive targeted treatment.
In daily life, maintain a positive mood, avoid mental stress and emotional fluctuations, pay attention to warmth, avoid cold exposure and overexertion, and practice good hygiene to prevent infections. Sexual activity during menstruation is prohibited.
