What are the reasons for delayed menstruation during winter?

Patient's question:

I went to the hospital for a check-up and was prescribed progesterone pills. After that, there was no further information or instructions. The situation is still the same now. Why is that?
Past Treatment and Effect: There was no specific information.
Help Needed: If I go to the hospital for a check-up, which aspects should I get checked?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this is due to the reason of cold in the body. Generally, it is caused by cold pathogens invading the palace, leading to delayed menstruation. Because cold causes blood to coagulate and stagnate, resulting in poor blood flow during menstruation, which leads to delayed menstruation. Additionally, you can drink some brown sugar water. Menstruation can be affected by changes in the environment, weather, mood, stress, and other factors. Generally, a delay of 3-5 days before or after is considered normal. Changes in weather can also cause changes in menstruation, which is normal.
It is recommended that you continue to monitor your situation. If your menstruation is delayed by about ten days, it is advisable to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for examination and consultation.
