Patient's question:
I have been married and using a ring for 4 years. This time, my period has been 6 days late. I want to ask if I might be pregnant.Also, the issue is that my periods used to be very regular, and I've never had this happen before. The longest I've ever been delayed was by one day. So now, with a delay of 6 days, I'm really worried!
First follow-up question: Does anyone know?
Doctor's answer:
?Hello, according to your description, it is normal for a woman's menstrual period to occasionally be delayed by three to seven days. It is recommended that you don't worry too much and wait a few more days to see if your period comes. If it still hasn't arrived, it is best to use a pregnancy test kit 14 days after sexual intercourse to check if you are pregnant. It is also suggested to pay more attention to local hygiene, especially before sexual activity, ensuring both parties are clean.
