Lower abdominal pain causes delayed menstruation

Many women may often encounter the situation of lower abdominal pain and delayed menstruation. At this time, they are often very uncomfortable and their mood will be greatly affected. Then many female friends will ask, what is the reason for this lower abdominal pain and delayed menstruation? I really want to know. Here I will introduce to you the reasons for this lower abdominal pain and delayed menstruation to see if you are one of them.

1. Excessive stress can cause endocrine disorders. Being under stress for a long time will inhibit the function of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, causing the ovaries to no longer secrete female hormones and ovulate, and menstruation will begin to become disordered. Similarly, long-term psychological depression, sulking or bad mood can also affect menstruation and cause amenorrhea. In addition, dieting or eating too little fat will reduce estrogen secretion in the body in the long run, which in turn may cause delayed menstruation or even no menstruation.

2. Side effects of drugs may cause delayed menstruation, and side effects of drugs may also lead to amenorrhea. If taken improperly, contraceptive pills may cause endocrine disorders and delayed menstruation. According to patients, the new generation of gastrokinetic drug metoclopramide, also known as domperidone, may also cause delayed menstruation.

3. Pregnancy is the main cause of amenorrhea. If you have had sexual intercourse recently and your menstruation is delayed by more than 7 days than usual, you should consider whether you are pregnant. You can use early pregnancy test strips to test. If you are not sure, it is recommended to go to the hospital for confirmation. In addition, if you are pregnant, there will be other symptoms such as nausea, breast tenderness, etc.

4. Surgery causes cervical adhesions. For example, intrauterine surgery causes cervical adhesions, which leads to menstrual blood stasis and delays menstruation.

5. Other factors such as tobacco and alcohol, drug abuse, tobacco and alcohol factors, and placement of contraceptive rings may all lead to amenorrhea. If menstruation is delayed only 1-2 times occasionally and there are no other accompanying symptoms, it does not fall into the category of menstrual disorders. When the interval between menstrual cycles is more than 35 days, it is called oligomenorrhea, and when menstruation stops for more than 3 menstrual cycles, it is called amenorrhea. The absence of ovulation after menopause can also lead to problems such as osteoporosis and endometrial hyperplasia, which must be taken seriously.

This is the end of the introduction to the causes of lower abdominal pain and delayed menstruation. I hope everyone will still take care of their health and not get sick. Also, try to relax, don’t be nervous or anxious, pay attention to the hygiene of your personal sex life. Also, if the situation is serious and has been delayed for a long time, it is better to go to the hospital for a check-up and feel more at ease.
