What if my period hasn't come yet?

Generally speaking, if a woman's body is normal, her menstruation will come on time. However, if a woman is in poor health or has some problems, her period may not come when it is due. Women should be more aware of their menstrual periods. If they do not have regular periods, they need to adjust their bodies. So, what happens if your period hasn't come yet?

Irregular living habits

When women are exposed to cold during menstruation, the blood vessels in the pelvis will contract excessively, which can cause oligomenorrhea or even amenorrhea.

Correct approach: Daily life should be regular, avoid excessive fatigue, especially during menstruation, keep away from cold and damp.

Emotional abnormalities

Long-term mental depression, sulking, or severe mental stimulation and psychological trauma can all lead to menstrual disorders, 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.

The right thing to do: Keep a good mood.

Excessive dieting

A girl’s body fat must account for at least 17% of her body weight before she can have her first menstruation, and her body fat must reach at least 22% of her body weight to maintain a normal menstrual cycle. Excessive dieting, due to insufficient energy intake, causes a large amount of fat and protein to be consumed in the body, resulting in estrogen synthesis disorders and obvious estrogen deficiency, affecting menstruation, and even causing scanty menstruation or amenorrhea.

The right approach: Women who want a slim figure should never go on a diet blindly.

Adjust your lifestyle and eating habits

1. Dieting can appropriately reduce the intake of nutrients

2. Don’t eat one meal full and one meal hungry

3. Keep a cheerful spirit

4. Avoid eating raw, cold, sour, spicy and other irritating foods

Changes in lifestyle or living environment

Some women like to stay up late, drink cold drinks or eat cold food, over-diet, etc. These bad habits have a great impact on women's normal menstruation. A regular life can keep menstruation regular.

In addition, changes in living environment may also affect the arrival of menstruation. For example, colder weather may cause menstruation to be delayed.

Correct approach: Maintain good and healthy living habits, keep warm, especially during menstruation.

Radiation effects

Long-term exposure to harmful radiation or chemotherapy drugs can cause premature ovarian failure and delayed menstruation.

Correct approach: Try to avoid exposure to radiation, such as playing with your mobile phone less or not sitting in front of the computer all day.
