Patient's question:
We did it on the very first day she was done, and it's been exactly 30 days since then. But her period still hasn't arrived. Yesterday, we took a test, and it showed one red line, which means she's not pregnant. Yet her period is still not coming. Is the test accurate??? The test strips were stored properly and are in good quality!!!!I'm so worried!!!!
Doctor's answer:
Menstruation can be affected by many factors, such as food, emotions, medication, environment, weather, etc. Generally, it is normal if it is or delayed by 7 days. If it exceeds this period for a long time, checking six hormones can examine the endocrine system. Routine gynecological examinations like vaginal discharge tests and ultrasound can determine if it is caused by gynecological diseases. If you are concerned about pregnancy, you can closely monitor your condition. If menstruation is delayed by more than one week, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital's gynecology department for blood HCG and ultrasound tests to confirm pregnancy. Wishing you good health.
