Patient's question:
I have been 40 days since my last menstrual period. I don't know if I am pregnant.Doctor's answer:
The menstrual cycle of women is generally 28 to 30 days. It is still within the normal range if it is advanced or delayed by about 7 days. The length of the cycle varies from person to person. However, if menstruation does not arrive after more than 7 days, it is considered delayed menstruation. The main reasons to consider for delayed menstruation are two aspects: for women with sexual experience, the first is pregnancy, followed by menstrual disorders. You can first use a pregnancy test strip to determine if you are pregnant. If pregnancy is ruled out, it may be due to menstrual disorders, and you should go to the hospital for relevant examinations to identify the cause.
