Why is ovulation delayed?

Many women choose the appropriate time to have sex based on their ovulation period to greatly increase their chances of pregnancy and achieve twice the result with half the effort. However, many women do not ovulate during their ovulation period, which makes women who are planning to get pregnant very anxious. There are many reasons for delayed ovulation, which can affect both the physical and mental aspects. Below I will introduce in detail the reasons for delayed ovulation.

Generally speaking, only one egg cell matures during each menstrual cycle. When the egg cell is fully developed and mature, under the action of sex hormones and enzymes in the body, the follicular membrane and the ovarian theca will dissolve and rupture, the follicular fluid will be discharged, and the oocyte will be released. This is ovulation. Women in their childbearing years ovulate once a month.

Reasons for delayed ovulation in women:

First, women’s ovulation is delayed due to endocrine diseases such as polycystic ovary syndrome and premature ovarian failure. The occurrence of this type of disease is often accompanied by irregular menstruation. If you find any abnormalities, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible. Otherwise, this type of endocrine disorder will seriously affect one's life and subsequent childbearing.

In addition, irregular living habits, excessive dieting, and excessive weight loss can also cause endocrine disorders, which in turn lead to delayed ovulation in women. This type of female friends should pay attention to reasonably adjusting their work and rest time and maintaining healthy living and eating habits.

Finally, if women are under pressure from work, life, etc. for a long time, it will affect their menstrual period to a certain extent, and then lead to delayed ovulation. Therefore, female friends should release their pressure reasonably and always stay optimistic.

In addition to the above reasons, excessive consumption of spicy and irritating foods, improper use of contraceptives, and too many and too frequent abortions may all lead to delayed ovulation in women.

The above are the reasons why women’s ovulation period is delayed. I hope every female friend can pay attention to the problem of delayed ovulation. Only by understanding the specific causes of their own illness can female friends take symptomatic medication under the guidance of a doctor. Especially women who are preparing for pregnancy should pay attention to ovulation monitoring and adjust their body as soon as possible when there is any abnormality in the body to ensure the smooth discharge of healthy eggs.
