Doctor's answer:
Delayed menstruation, also known as menstrual delay, is also referred to as "infrequent menstruation," "menstrual delay," "menstrual delay," and is a common type of menstrual disorder. The menstrual cycle of women is generally 21 to 35 days, with an average of 28 days. Being 7 days earlier or later is still within the normal range, and the length of the cycle varies from person to person. However, if menstruation has not arrived after 7 days, it is considered menstrual delay. Various factors affecting the central nervous system-hypothalamus-pituitary-ovary axis and the uterus in women can all lead to menstrual delay. It can occur in both ovulatory and anovulatory menstrual cycles. Women of childbearing age who find their menstruation delayed by more than 10 days should first rule out pregnancy. If pregnancy has been ruled out, it is considered menstrual disorder, and you can take Qì and Xī Capsules to regulate your body. Qì and Xī Capsules work by regulating the body's Qi and blood status, thereby regulating menstruation and restoring it to normal. Clinical feedback indicates good effectiveness. Additionally, you should also pay attention to rest, avoid staying up late, pay attention to your dietary structure, and avoid eating cold and cool foods.
