Is it serious if my period is delayed for 15 days?

Female friends usually encounter the problem of delayed menstruation, but generally women only have a delay of a few days, but sometimes some women will encounter a delay of 15 days. If the delay is 15 days, women who have sex do not need to worry, as it may be pregnancy, but women who do not have sex need to find out the reason immediately and pay attention. Next, let's take a look at whether it is normal for menstruation to be delayed by 15 days?

Menstruation, also known as the physiological cycle, is generally 28 to 30 days. It is normal for menstruation to be advanced or delayed by about 10 days. The length of the cycle varies from person to person. If it exceeds this time, it is okay if the menstruation is delayed for less than ten days. If the menstruation is delayed for more than ten days, it is best to go to the hospital for a thorough examination.

If it is due to psychological disorders such as tension and anxiety, too much pressure, changes in the natural environment, or some diseases that affect the endocrine system. Can cause delayed menstruation. If there is only 1-2 missed periods and no other accompanying symptoms, it does not fall into the category of menstrual disorders. If the interval between menstrual cycles is more than 35 days, it is called oligomenorrhea, and if menstruation stops for more than 3 menstrual cycles, it is called amenorrhea. Because there is no ovulation after menopause, it can also cause osteoporosis, endometrial hyperplasia and other problems, which must be taken seriously and you need to go to the hospital for examination.

The following are the basic symptoms of irregular menstruation

1. Early menstruation. Early menstruation refers to a shortened physiological cycle, shorter than 21 days, and it lasts for more than 2 cycles. It belongs to ovulatory functional uterine bleeding, with biphasic ovulation temperature and a short follicular phase of only 7 to 8 days; or the follicular phase is shorter than 10 days, or the body temperature rises by less than 0.5℃.

2. Delayed menstruation: Menstruation is delayed for more than 7 days, or even more than 40 to 50 days, and it continues for more than 2 menstrual cycles. For those who ovulate, the body temperature during the ovulation period is biphasic, but the follicular phase is long and the high temperature phase is slightly lower; for those who do not ovulate, the body temperature during the ovulation period is monophasic.

3. The menstrual period is long, the menstrual cycle is normal, the menstrual period is long, and the menstrual period exceeds 7 days or even 2 weeks. People with inflammation usually have lower abdominal pain, which is aggravated during menstruation. They usually have a lot of leucorrhea, which is slightly yellow or white-yellow, thick and has a smell. Those with incomplete corpus luteum contraction are also accompanied by heavy menstrual flow; those with increased uterine wall repair still have a small amount of continuous vaginal bleeding after the normal menstrual period.

Finally, I hope all female friends can take care of their bodies. Delayed menstruation must be caused by abnormalities in the human body, so everyone should seek medical treatment immediately. Pay good attention to and cherish our best friend, menstruation, don’t let it lose its temper, and be a healthy and beautiful woman in both body and mind.
