How many days can a girl's menstruation be delayed?

Delayed menstruation is very common for many women, and it is also a common clinical problem. The reasons for delayed menstruation are relatively complicated and will be affected by many factors, such as women’s own physical factors or some pathological reasons. These factors may cause delayed menstruation in women. However, if your period is delayed for too long, you should still pay attention to it. So how many days can a woman’s menstruation be delayed at most?

1. The normal menstrual period is 21 to 35 days. If it is within this normal range, if the menstruation is delayed within seven days, it is within the normal range. It should not exceed seven days at most. If it exceeds seven days, it is abnormal. It may be caused by endocrine disorders. You need to go to the hospital on the third day of menstruation to check the six sex hormones and thyroid hormones.

2. Because there are many reasons for delayed menstruation, it may be caused by hyperprolactinemia or abnormal thyroid function, such as hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism. Most of the time, it is due to abnormal ovulation or abnormal ovulation. It may also be caused by polycystic ovary syndrome. Therefore, the next step of treatment must be determined based on the endocrine test results, and an ultrasound should be performed to rule out ovarian tumors. Because if some people have ovarian tumors, some of these tumors secrete hormones and can affect menstruation.

3. It is normal for menstruation to come one week earlier or later. The menstrual cycle is affected by many factors. When menstruation is delayed, it is recommended to observe for 1-2 days, or go to the hospital for a detailed examination to clarify the cause of the delayed menstruation. If a woman's lifestyle is normal and she is not affected by emotions, illness, medication, etc., then it is very likely that pregnancy or a reproductive system disease has caused delayed menstruation. If a woman consumes a large amount of tonic food or loses weight rapidly in a short period of time, the change in eating habits will cause the body's functions and endocrine system to adjust, and the menstrual cycle will also change accordingly.
