Menstruation is menstruation. If pregnancy causes the absence of menstruation for five months, it is a normal physiological phenomenon and is not serious. If it is not caused by pregnancy, then it may be secondary amenorrhea. Whether it is serious or not is related to the primary disease and cannot be generalized.
The menstrual cycle is usually 21-35 days, if the period does not come for 5 months, it may be caused by pregnancy, which is a normal phenomenon and not serious, so it can be determined by a pregnancy test.
However, if the absence of menstruation for 5 months is not caused by pregnancy, secondary amenorrhea is considered. Hypothalamic amenorrhea is more common, followed by pituitary, ovarian and uterine amenorrhea, so whether secondary amenorrhea is serious or not is related to the condition of the primary disease and the individual’s physical condition, so we cannot accurately draw a conclusion on the seriousness of the absence of menstruation for 5 months.
It is important to note that if menstruation does not occur for 5 months, it is advisable to consult a doctor for timely diagnosis in order to prevent the condition from worsening.
