Patient's question:
Experts, hello!I have been experiencing menstrual cycles that are delayed every month since I was 14 years old until now at 24. The delay is at least 7 to 15 days each month, sometimes even more than 20 days. Occasionally, my periods are on time for a month. I would like to ask, is this considered menstrual irregularity? Is it normal? What should I do?
First follow-up question: I already have a child who is 2 years old.
Second follow-up question: It seems like I didn’t ask those questions above!
