Patient's question:
Doctor, hello: My last menstrual period was on October 12th. Usually, my next period is delayed by two days, but today is the 18th, and my period hasn't arrived yet. I took a pregnancy test and it was negative. My appetite suddenly increased these past two days, but my mood is very bad. I don't know what's wrong? Why hasn't my period arrived by today?Doctor's answer:
Hello, your situation, due to sexual activity and the absence of contraception, could result in a missed period, which is likely pregnancy. This is especially true if your menstrual cycle is usually regular and suddenly stops.In your case, I recommend using a urine early pregnancy test or a pregnancy test kit to check. If there are two red lines, it indicates a positive result, confirming pregnancy. If the test is positive, it is crucial to visit a hospital for an ultrasound to confirm an intrauterine pregnancy, as ectopic pregnancy can also show a positive result. I wish you good health.
