How many days of irregular menstruation can a pregnancy test detect?

Patient's question:

Irregular menstruation, I took Chinese medicine to regulate my period in March and April. My period came normally after a 5-day delay. In May, I didn't take any medicine, and my period has not arrived yet. My period arrived on April 23rd, and the earliest it could be expected in May is around May 28th. There was intercourse in May, and I used a pregnancy test on June 1st, but it did not show pregnancy.

Doctor's answer:

After a delay of 7 days in the menstrual cycle, an early pregnancy test can be used to detect it. Additionally, two weeks after sexual intercourse, pregnancy can be confirmed through a blood HCG test.
Hello, irregular menstruation is generally divided into two major categories. The first category is caused by nervous-endocrine disorders, including uterine bleeding during puberty and menopause, both of which can lead to menstrual irregularities. The second category is primarily due to organic changes in the reproductive organs, including inflammation of the reproductive organs. It is recommended to undergo a thorough examination for a better diagnosis.
