Delayed menstruation in women of childbearing age should first be considered as pregnancy. In addition, delayed menstruation may be due to physiological reasons, polycystic ovary syndrome, premature ovarian failure, etc. It is recommended to go to the hospital for relevant examinations.
To determine whether you are pregnant, you can undergo relevant tests, such as blood HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin), urine HCG, ultrasound and so on. Blood HCG is a hormone secreted by the placenta when a woman is pregnant, and the normal blood HCG value for a non-pregnant woman is 0 to 5 IU/L.
Usually after 10 days of intercourse, you can test for pregnancy by drawing blood, and if the blood HCG value is greater than 5 IU/L, it means you may be pregnant. A positive HCG test in the urine indicates a possible pregnancy. pregnancy can also be checked by ultrasound, which is usually done about 5 weeks after menopause, and the pregnancy is confirmed by seeing a fetal sac or gestational sac.
Delayed menstruation may be due to physiological reasons such as psycho-spiritual factors and nutritional deficiencies; it may also be due to ovarian factors, such as polycystic ovary syndrome and premature ovarian failure, which cause delayed menstruation.
There may be other reasons for delayed menstruation, so it is recommended to go to the hospital in time, complete the relevant examinations, clarify the causes under the guidance of the doctor, and actively target treatment.
