Reasons for missing menstruation for three days

Menstruation is something that women are more concerned about. Most women know their monthly cycle, but there are still a few who don’t know when their menstrual cycle is. Every woman has this mentality. If the menstruation is slightly delayed or comes a day earlier, then she will start to be suspicious, fearing that her body is in danger. This kind of vigilance is very good, but don’t be overly nervous. Let’s take a look at the reasons for not having a menstrual period for three days:

In fact, as long as we understand that menstruation is delayed or advanced within a certain time range, it is normal. Clinically, it is normal for the delivery to be delayed by 3-7 days. But why would it be advanced or delayed? Then we need to understand the reasons for delayed menstruation.

1. Pregnancy For women of childbearing age who have had sexual life, when their menstruation is delayed, they often doubt whether it is menstruation abnormality or pregnancy. This problem is a very common phenomenon in daily life.

2. Side effects of drugs, such as endocrine disorders after long-term use of contraceptives, can also cause delayed menstruation. Doctors also found, based on patient feedback, that a new generation of gastrokinetic drug, metoclopramide, also known as domperidone, may also cause this condition.

3. Other psychological factors such as mental tension, stress, environmental changes, and some diseases that affect endocrine system.

4. Excessive dieting: Expert studies have shown that girls need body fat to account for at least 17% of their body weight to have their first menstruation, and body fat must reach at least 22% of their body weight to maintain a normal menstrual cycle.

It is normal for menstruation to be delayed by one week. Psychological factors, study pressure, mental stress and anxiety caused by work pressure, diet, environment, drugs and other factors may cause menstruation to be delayed. Menstrual irregularity is a general term that includes irregular menstrual cycles, early or late menstrual periods, irregular periods, excessive or insufficient menstrual flow, purple or light red color, thick or thin menstrual blood, etc. Menstruation should be regular during most of a woman's reproductive period. However, with the fast pace of life, high work pressure, environmental changes and inappropriate means of weight loss, many women have menstrual disorders. Women's menstruation is the result of the interaction between the cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, pituitary gland, ovaries and uterus, and is regulated by neuroendocrine. When a person is under excessive stress, fear, sadness, overwork or undergoing surgery, the functions of the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, ovaries and uterus may be suppressed through the neuroendocrine system, leading to menstrual abnormalities. For some people, after their menstrual blood has stopped, it may come back a day or two later. This is called "menstrual bleeding returning". This is not a disease but a normal phenomenon. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the cause and pathogenesis of irregular menstruation are mainly due to injury from the seven emotions or the six exogenous evils, or congenital kidney deficiency, multiple childbirths, excessive fatigue, which damage the internal organs, malfunction of the kidneys, liver and spleen, and imbalance of qi and blood, resulting in irregular menstruation. Deer fetus is a precious animal medicine. It is the placenta of a deer. It can replenish qi and blood, warm the meridians, dispel cold and dredge the collaterals. It maintains the uterus and restores ovarian function, avoiding the side effects of artificial cycles in Western medicine and the dependence on estrogen. It has a very good symptomatic and menstrual regulating effect on irregular menstruation caused by qi and blood stasis and deficiency-cold syndrome.

There are many reasons for delayed or early menstruation. Don't worry too much at this time, because menstruation is normal before and after seven days, and there is no abnormal phenomenon. However, it cannot be ruled out, so you should still have a check-up. If nothing is found, you can rest assured. A healthy body is what everyone pursues and envies, so you must closely observe your menstruation in your daily life.
