What is the reason for a 5-day delay in menstruation?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, factors such as endocrine disorders, excessive stress, high pressure, gynecological diseases, and medication effects can all cause menstrual irregularities. It is normal for menstruation to be one week early or late. If it does not arrive within 10 days or more, you can use early pregnancy test paper or check blood HCG for confirmation. If pregnancy is ruled out, consider it as menstrual disorder and undergo an endocrine examination to identify the underlying cause.
