Patient's question:
A person has not had their period for 40 days, experiencing severe left breast tenderness and occasional lower abdominal pain. On day 34, they had intercourse with internal ejaculation, and now they have taken a pregnancy test which showed one line. The lower abdominal pain has persisted for several days without the period arriving. What could be the reason? Please ask the doctor what I should do now. I am very anxious.Doctor's answer:
Hello, after childbirth, the uterus needs a certain amount of time to return to normal. Menstruation usually occurs around 30 to 40 days. A small number of women may experience delayed menstruation due to poor uterine recovery, and it generally returns to normal within about 3 months.
