Doctor's answer:
Hello, excluding the possibility of pregnancy, the reasons for menstrual irregularity need to be identified. There are many factors that can affect the normal onset of menstruation, such as psychological factors, changes in living environment, nutrition, endocrine, and others. It is recommended that you take progesterone to promote the onset of menstruation, pay attention to a regular lifestyle, and avoid excessive mental stress that could affect the normal onset of menstruation. If it is not pregnancy, menstrual irregularity may also be caused by uterine lesions, gynecological inflammation, ovarian lesions, endocrine, and other factors. It is recommended that you rest, enhance nutrition, and avoid heavy physical labor.
