What are the reasons for lower abdominal pain and delayed menstruation?

Whenever menstruation is delayed, women who have had sex will be particularly worried. If you want a child, it's fine. But if you don't want to get pregnant now, you will be in a relatively tense mental state before your period. If your lower abdomen still hurts at this time, then the possibility of pregnancy is relatively small. So what is the cause at this time?

(1) Irregular living habits: When women are exposed to cold during menstruation, the blood vessels in the pelvis will contract excessively, which can cause oligomenorrhea or even amenorrhea. Therefore, women should have a regular daily life, avoid excessive fatigue, and especially keep away from cold and damp during menstruation.

(2) Emotional abnormalities: Long-term mental depression, sulking, or severe mental stimulation and psychological trauma can all lead to menstrual disorders or dysmenorrhea or amenorrhea. This is because menstruation is caused by the stimulation of the endometrium by hormones secreted by the ovaries. The hormones secreted by the ovaries are controlled by the release of hormones from the pituitary gland and hypothalamus, so they will affect menstruation.

(3) Excessive dieting: Expert research shows that girls need body fat to account for at least 17% of their body weight in order to have their first menstruation, and body fat must reach at least 22% of their body weight in order to maintain a normal menstrual cycle. Excessive dieting will cause a large amount of fat and protein in the body to be consumed due to insufficient energy intake, resulting in estrogen synthesis disorders and obvious estrogen deficiency, affecting menstruation, or even causing scanty menstruation or amenorrhea. Therefore, women who pursue a slim figure must not diet blindly.

(4) Excessive weight loss: In order to achieve weight loss, some women not only control their diet but also take various weight loss drugs. This type of weight loss may also cause delayed menstruation.

Therefore, it is necessary to maintain a healthy lifestyle so that irregular menstruation problems will not easily occur. Women's menstrual cycle is closely related to their daily living habits and emotions. Once bad habits develop or there is a large emotional gap, irregular menstruation will occur.
