Patient's question:
The menstrual period is always one or two weeks later than the previous month. If something happens during the month or if the mood is not good, it will be delayed even more. This indicates what kind of problem with the body? First follow-up question: Does it also indicate that the body is weak?Doctor's answer:
A delay of one week in menstruation is normal. If it exceeds one week, it is recommended to take a pregnancy test. Causes of delayed menstruation may include not being pregnant, medication, stress, high pressure, changes in environment, endocrine-related psychological factors, and gynecological inflammation. It is advised to eat less raw and cold, sour, spicy, and other stimulating foods, drink more boiled water, and maintain regular bowel movements. You can undergo an electrochemical luminescence immunoassay for six hormones to understand your endocrine status.
