The first is late menstruation accompanied by breast pain. Gynecologists say: It is usually normal for menstruation to be advanced or delayed by a week, and women do not need to worry; as for breast pain, it is because when women are approaching their menstrual period, the estrogen level increases, which promotes breast development, so they will feel breast pain.

If a woman's menstruation has stopped for more than ten days and she experiences symptoms similar to pregnancy, such as breast tenderness, frequent urination, and high body temperature, it is best to go to the pharmacy immediately to buy a pregnancy test stick or early pregnancy test paper to check whether she is pregnant by testing the HCG component in the urine.

The third type is that you may not be pregnant but if you do not have your period, you should consider that it is caused by irregular menstruation.

How many days is it normal to delay menstruation?

Generally speaking, it is normal for women to have their menstruation delayed by less than 7 days. The menstrual cycle is generally 28-30 days. It is normal for your period to come a week early or late. 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. In addition, if you are under great stress for a long time, it is easy to cause endocrine disorders in the body and changes in the hormone environment, leading to delayed menstruation. Diseases, drugs and other factors can also affect the normal menstrual cycle, so women who take emergency contraceptive pills for a long time or suffer from polycystic ovary syndrome often have their menstruation delayed.
