How many days of delayed menstruation is considered menstrual disorder?

Patient's question:

I don't know why, but my period is delayed by two or three days. Does this condition fall under menstrual irregularity?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally, a menstrual period that is one week early or late is considered normal. In the current situation, you can wait and see. If it still hasn't arrived after another week, you can take a early pregnancy test. If you're not pregnant, it could be menstrual irregularity, and you can take Black-Bone Chicken and White Phoenix Pill or Chinese herbal medicine to regulate it. If necessary, hormone therapy for artificial cycles may be used.
The occurrence of menstrual irregularity not only affects a woman's health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it's best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a leukorrhea test to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, you should drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
