Patient's question:
Doctor,Hello, I am 24 years old. I had sexual activity last month, and my period is now 2 days late. I am under a lot of psychological stress and don't know if an abortion would be terrifying or dangerous if I really am pregnant. Are there many aftereffects? I am currently very healthy. Will it be very painful?
Thank you! First follow-up question: But I have always been very regular, with a cycle of 30 days. Is this related to psychological stress?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally speaking, a delay of about one week in menstruation is a normal phenomenon. It is recommended to wait a bit longer. If menstruation still hasn't arrived, it may be considered amenorrhea, possibly caused by endocrine disorders. Of course, it's also necessary to rule out pregnancy.The occurrence of menstrual disorders not only affects the patient's body but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it's best to visit a gynecology department in the hospital for a leukorrhea test. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. In daily life, pay attention to dietary regulation, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
