Patient's question:
Menstruation is delayed by ten days or more each time. It never used to be this way. It only started happening in the last two months. Recently, I've been eating more fried and high-fat foods, and in larger quantities. Could this unhealthy diet be the cause? Should I see a gynecologist? Since I haven't had sexual activity, a Pap smear isn't possible. Are there other tests I should consider? I don't have any other obvious discomforts.30-year-old first question supplement: Thank you for the answer. There's no difference in color or a feeling of weakness.

Doctor's answer:
Hello! You can measure your basal body temperature for three consecutive months. If your period is delayed, you suspect that your luteal function is not good. It's not very related to diet, but it has a certain relationship with work pressure.Basal body temperature measurement: Sleep for more than six hours. Do nothing after waking up, including going to the bathroom, drinking water, etc. The first thing to do is measure your temperature. Record the temperature and observe whether ovulation occurs, how long the high-temperature phase lasts, to understand the state of your luteal function. Alternatively, you can measure your endocrine on the third day of your period. After clarifying the situation, you can then receive corresponding treatment.
