Why is my period delayed for half a month?

Menstruation is a symptom of the menstrual period that every female friend will encounter. At the same time, the time of menstruation can be estimated. Although sometimes the estimated time will be different from the actual time, the difference will not be too big. However, sometimes menstruation will be delayed for about half a month. What is going on? Next, I will give you a detailed introduction to why your period is delayed by ten days.

(1) Irregular living habits According to research, 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) Abnormal emotions: 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, and the hormones secreted by the ovaries are controlled by the release of hormones from the pituitary gland and hypothalamus. Therefore, any abnormality in the function of the ovaries, pituitary gland, or hypothalamus will affect menstruation. (3) Excessive dieting: Expert studies have shown 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 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.

The above is an introduction to the reasons why menstruation is delayed for half a month. At this point, I have reason to believe that after the detailed introduction above, everyone should have a comprehensive and full understanding of the reasons why menstruation is delayed for half a month. In fact, as long as everyone can pay more attention to their bodies in their daily life habits, many adverse situations can be avoided.
