Patient's question:
Medical History: Hello doctor, I was supposed to get my period on the 10th of November, but from the 5th to the 14th, I had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend. My period still hasn't arrived, and I'm very scared, not knowing if I might be pregnant. I have had two abortions in the past. I have taken pregnancy tests, but the results have all been negative. However, my period still hasn't come. I would like to ask, how long does it take to determine if I am pregnant or not?????Additional Question: I would also like to ask how many times having an abortion can affect future fertility.
Doctor's answer:
Women who are pregnant will not have their menstrual period, but there are also women who do not get pregnant and still do not have their period on schedule. For such cases, women should be alert to the possibility of menstrual irregularities. Menstrual irregularities are regulated by the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian-gonadal axis. Factors such as mental stress, emotional fluctuations, changes in the environment, pregnancy, age, diseases, medications, and nutritional status can all cause dysfunction of this axis, leading to menstrual irregularities.It is recommended that you visit a professional and reputable infertility hospital for a systematic examination first. The necessary tests include: endocrine tests, routine gynecological examinations, ovulation detection, and immune factor tests. In professional and reputable infertility hospitals, all fees are strictly charged according to the pricing standards set by the municipal price bureau, creating a "peace of mind, comfort, and reassurance" medical environment for patients.
