Patient's question:
My girlfriend's last menstrual period was on November 1st. We had sex during the safe period afterward, but she hasn't had her period yet. In the past few days, she has occasionally experienced vomiting and excessive sleepiness. Could she be pregnant? I hope the expert can advise me. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Hello, the current check shows no pregnancy, but it cannot be completely ruled out as the delay in menstruation is still relatively short. It is necessary to wait until one week after the menstrual period to use a pregnancy test kit to confirm whether or not you are pregnant. Alternatively, you can go to the hospital to check blood hCG to confirm pregnancy. The delay in menstruation may also be due to factors such as fatigue, poor rest, stress, anxiety, environmental changes, gynecological inflammation, or endocrine disorders, all of which can lead to menstrual delays. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a checkup of the six sex hormones and an ultrasound to identify the cause and then receive targeted treatment.
