Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What kind of inflammation could cause a delayed period?Doctor's answer:
If there is a delay in menstruation, it could be a possibility of pregnancy. Therefore, it is recommended to use early pregnancy test strips or have blood tests for HCG detection 7-10 days after the delay in menstruation or 10 days after sexual intercourse. After ruling out pregnancy, consider potential causes such as fatigue, poor rest, stress, anxiety, environmental changes, gynecological inflammation, and endocrine disorders. It is advised to visit a professional hospital for relevant examinations, such as blood tests for six sex hormones and ultrasound, to identify the underlying cause. Once the cause is determined, symptomatic treatment should be administered under the guidance of a doctor.
