Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons for delayed menstruation, and the following are some common ones:1. Delayed menstruation caused by endocrine disorders. The most common clinical condition is polycystic ovary syndrome. If you have obesity, hirsutism, acne, or infertility, you should check your endocrine system. Once abnormalities are detected, treatment should be started as soon as possible.
2. Delayed menstruation caused by psychological factors. If you suddenly experience excessive stress, grief, sadness, anger, or emotional distress such as breakup, it often leads to delayed menstruation.

4. Delayed menstruation caused by chronic diseases. Some chronic wasting diseases often lead to delayed menstruation due to nutritional deficiencies. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a detailed examination to confirm the condition and receive symptomatic treatment.
