Patient's question:
A person has not had their period for 40 days, experiencing severe pain and swelling in the left chest, occasional sharp pain in the lower abdomen. On day 34, they had intercourse with internal ejaculation, and now they have tested with a pregnancy test and received one line. The lower abdomen has been in pain for several days, but the period still hasn't arrived. 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 some time to return to normal. Menstruation usually occurs around 30 to 40 days. A few women may experience delayed menstruation due to poor uterine recovery, and it generally returns to normal within about 3 months.
