Can a delayed period of two days be checked by oneself?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Premature or delayed menstruation by one week is considered a normal phenomenon. Of course, if there has been sexual activity, a blood and urine hCG test, ultrasound, and other examinations can be conducted one week after the menstrual cycle is delayed to check for pregnancy. Menstrual delay should also be considered due to factors such as poor rest, stress, gynecological inflammation, or endocrine disorders, all of which can lead to delayed menstruation. It is recommended to visit a hospital for tests of the six sex hormones and ultrasound. Avoid taking medication blindly and seek targeted treatment after identifying the cause.
