Patient's question:
The person who came on the 18th arrived four days earlier than the person who came on the 14th of last month. Our periods usually come a few days early, but this month, they were supposed to come on the 11th or 12th. However, we had sex on the 12th of this month, and we used a condom. But so far, on the 14th, they haven't come yet. I want to ask what's going on! On the 14th, I took a pregnancy test, and it didn't show any pregnancy. But why did it come later? I've never had it come later before. It still hasn't come today. This month, I haven't been easily irritated, haven't been angry, and haven't been eating much. Medical history and effectiveness: Previously, it always came early each month. What kind of help do I want: What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the female menstrual cycle is generally 28 to 30 days. It is still within the normal range if it is advanced or delayed by about 7 days. The length of the cycle varies from person to person. However, if menstruation has not arrived after more than 7 days, it is considered menstrual delay.The main reasons for menstrual delay should be considered from two aspects. If there has been sexual activity, the first consideration is pregnancy. A pregnancy test can be used to confirm this after a delay of one week.
Secondly, menstrual delay can also be caused by factors such as fatigue, poor rest, stress, anxiety, environmental changes, gynecological inflammation, or endocrine disorders. It is recommended to visit a hospital for tests of the six sex hormones and an ultrasound. Do not take medication blindly. Once the cause is identified, targeted treatment can be administered. Wishing you good health.
