Reasons for delayed menstruation after angiography

With the advancement of the times, there have been breakthroughs in some areas of disease treatment, but the devil is always one foot high and the road is ten feet higher. The development of medicine is also advancing rapidly. Many female friends’ diseases are constantly updated. Delayed menstruation after angiography troubles many female friends, but this is generally not something to worry about. If you take good care of your body, you will generally get better. If it still doesn't get better, you can consult a doctor.

Hysterosalpingography is a method of checking the patency of the fallopian tubes. Using a catheter, contrast agents are injected into the patient's uterine cavity and fallopian tubes. The contrast agents will appear in the fallopian tubes and pelvic cavity. Under the diagnosis of X-rays, fluoroscopy and radiography are performed. Based on the appearance of the contrast agents, the location and degree of fallopian tube blockage can be determined, and the shape of the uterine cavity can also be determined. Some patients experience delayed menstruation after angiography, but this phenomenon is usually only temporary. After one month, menstruation will basically return to normal, so there is no need to worry too much.

The main reasons for delayed menstruation after hysterosalpingography are as follows:

1. Drug and environmental influences: related to the patient’s own allergy history. When doing angiography, the patient needs to undergo an iodine allergy test. If the patient is allergic to the drug, menstruation may be delayed.

2. Contrast agent stimulation: The choice of contrast agent is the reason for delayed menstruation after salpingography. During the angiography process, contrast agents will be used, which will have a certain stimulation on the ovaries, causing temporary imbalance in hormone secretion and affecting menstruation. Iodine-water fallopian tube radiography has little irritation to the uterus, and there is no need to worry about iodine allergy. Delayed menstruation rarely occurs after radiography. Many patients come directly to the hospital and request to have iodine-water fallopian tube radiography. For the sake of their health, patients must choose regular and professional hospitals when undergoing examinations to avoid accidental injuries to the body. Hysterosalpingography is a commonly used method for examining the patency of the fallopian tubes. The stimulation of hysterosalpingography on the body is closely related to whether each hospital uses iodized oil contrast medium or iodized water contrast medium.

Many times mood can also affect the arrival of menstruation. We need to maintain a good attitude, pay attention to diet, eat more fruits and vegetables, eat light food, eat less greasy, spicy and irritating food, and avoid smoking and drinking. Appropriate exercise is also important. Although some diseases can be cured after treatment, they will leave some sequelae to a greater or lesser extent. Consult a doctor when necessary to resolve any doubts in a timely manner.
