4 days without a period is pregnancy? Can a test detect it?

Patient's question:

Each menstrual period always comes 5 days earlier. However, this month it's due, and it's already been 4 days late. Please ask: Is it possible to be pregnant? Can a pregnancy test detect it?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on your description, pregnancy is a possibility that cannot be ruled out. I recommend you go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound. If you are not pregnant, it could be a delayed menstrual period. It's okay to have a delayed period occasionally, as it may be related to your mood, physical condition, or environment. Just wait and see, and there is no need for treatment at this time.
Wishing you good health. The occurrence of menstrual irregularities not only affects a woman's body but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a gynecological ultrasound at the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation in your daily life, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
