Progesterone delays menstruation

Some female friends sometimes experience delayed menstruation. If it is within a week, it is still within the normal range, but if it exceeds a week, it is considered delayed menstruation.

What is corpus luteum copper

Corpus luteum, also known as progesterone, luteinizing hormone, is the key estrogen with microbial specificity secreted by the uterus and ovary. Before ovulation, the amount of progesterone produced daily is 2-3 mg, which mainly comes from the uterus and ovaries. During ovulation, it increases to 20-30 mg per day, most of which is metabolized by the progesterone in the uterus and ovaries. The corpus luteum can protect the uterine wall of women. During pregnancy, progesterone can provide support and guarantee for the early growth and development of the fetus, and can have a certain calming effect on the uterus. .

Reasons for delayed menstruation

1. Pregnancy. If your period is delayed for more than 10 days and you have had sexual intercourse before, you can use an early pregnancy test to confirm whether you are pregnant.

2. Side effects of drugs. Long-term use of emergency contraception can cause endocrine imbalance and lead to delayed menstruation. The root cause is that the dopamine receptors in the nerve center are inhibited, resulting in a small amount of hypothalamic pituitary release factors entering the anterior pituitary. Therefore, the secretion of gonadotropin and corticosteroids by the anterior pituitary is reduced, resulting in amenorrhea and delayed ovulation.

3. Caused by surgical treatment. If you have had an artificial abortion or medical abortion, the degree of repair of the uterine wall may also cause delayed menstruation.
