Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can a 3-day delay in menstruation be detected?Doctor's answer:
Premature or delayed menstruation by one week is considered a normal phenomenon. Of course, if there has been sexual activity, you can check blood and urine hCG, ultrasound, and other tests one week after the menstrual period is delayed to see if you are pregnant. Menstrual delay should also be considered due to factors such as poor rest, nervous tension, gynecological inflammation, or endocrine disorders, all of which can lead to delayed menstruation. It is recommended to visit a hospital for tests of six sex hormones and ultrasound, and not to take medication blindly. Once the cause is identified, targeted treatment should be administered.
