Patient's question:
We did it on the very first day she was done, and it's been exactly 30 days since then. But her period still hasn't come. Yesterday, we took a test, and it showed one red line, which means she's not pregnant. Yet her period is still not coming. Is the test accurate??? The test strips are stored properly and are of good quality!!!!I'm so worried!!!
Doctor's answer:
Menstruation can be easily affected by many factors, such as food, emotions, medication, environment, weather, etc. Under normal circumstances, it is considered normal if it is advanced or delayed by up to 7 days. If it exceeds this period for a long time, checking six hormones can examine the endocrine system. Routine gynecological examinations like vaginal discharge tests and ultrasound can determine whether it is caused by gynecological diseases. If you are concerned about pregnancy, you can closely monitor your condition. If menstruation is delayed by more than one week, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital's gynecological department for blood HCG, ultrasound, and other relevant tests to confirm pregnancy. Wishing you good health.
