What to do if your period is not on time

Irregular menstruation, also known as irregular menstruation, is a health problem that many women have. Female friends must not ignore this problem, because irregular menstruation may mean that women have neuroendocrine dysfunction, organic diseases and other problems. Different reasons for irregular menstruation require different responses. Below, I will introduce to you the reasons for irregular menstruation and how to deal with it!

1. Causes of irregular menstruation

1. Caused by neuroendocrine dysfunction: mainly due to unstable or defective function of the lower hindbrain-stomach-ovary axis, that is, menstrual disease.

2. Caused by organic diseases or drugs, including local inflammation, tumors and developmental abnormalities, malnutrition of reproductive organs; intracranial diseases; other endocrine dysfunctions such as thyroid and adrenal cortex dysfunction, diabetes, Sheehan's disease, liver diseases; blood diseases, etc. Menstrual irregularities may occur in women who use drugs to treat mental illnesses, endocrine preparations, or intrauterine devices for contraception. Certain occupations, such as long-distance runners, are prone to amenorrhea. In addition, some abnormal bleeding during pregnancy is often mistaken for menstrual irregularities.

Delayed menstruation is a problem that most women will encounter. The normal menstrual cycle should be 28-30 days. It is normal to be early or delayed within a week. If the menstruation is such a regularity, then there is no need to worry. If there is an abnormality in the menstrual cycle, then it needs to be taken seriously, especially if the menstruation is delayed for more than a week, then corresponding measures must be taken.
