Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Is a blood hCG test accurate for delayed menstruation?Doctor's answer:
After one week of a delayed menstrual cycle, an early pregnancy test can be used to detect it. If two red lines appear on the test paper, it indicates a positive result, meaning pregnancy. Alternatively, you can go to the hospital to have your blood tested for human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) to confirm pregnancy.Irregular menstruation not only affects a woman's life 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, pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
