What are the reasons why menstruation did not come?

As society continues to progress, people's living standards have improved, but the pressure on many people is also increasing. For example, some women with families have to balance family and work, and sometimes they may suffer from anxiety, insomnia and nightmares. These can cause menstrual disorders, resulting in menstruation not coming, affecting their lives. So, what are the reasons why your period doesn’t come when it’s due?

1. Pregnant

Ten days after the menstruation is delayed, you can test your urine with an early pregnancy test strip. If it is positive, you are very likely pregnant. If it is negative, the opposite is true. But if you are pregnant, there will be other symptoms such as nausea, breast tenderness, etc. Of course, the last resort is to go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination.

2. The amplitude of drug effect

If endocrine disorders occur after taking contraceptives, menstruation may be delayed. Doctors also found, based on patient feedback, that a new generation of gastrokinetic drug, metoclopramide, also known as domperidone, may also cause this condition. Since metoclopramide does not easily cross the blood-brain barrier, it is believed that it has no inhibitory effect on central dopamine receptors. Central dopamine receptors are inhibited, resulting in a decrease in the amount of hypothalamic release factors entering the anterior pituitary. As a result, the anterior pituitary secretes less gonadotropin and corticotropin, leading to amenorrhea and delayed ovulation.

3. Caused by surgery. For example, intrauterine surgery may cause cervical adhesions, which may lead to menstrual blood stasis and thus delay menstruation.

4. other

Such as psychological factors such as mental tension, stress, environmental changes, and some diseases that affect endocrine system. Can cause delayed menstruation.

Regarding the problem of menstruation not coming when the period is due, the explanation is given above. These problems are very serious. If not treated in time, they can easily cause gynecological diseases or infertility. If it is delayed 1-2 times occasionally and is not accompanied by other symptoms, it does not fall into the category of illness. But if your menstrual period is very short, you need to pay attention and go to the hospital for examination and timely treatment.
