Menstruation is a very familiar physical condition for women. It is a physiological reaction that occurs every month and can reflect women's physical condition. Many people know that although girls' menstruation comes on time every month, there are many factors that can cause it to be delayed.

Menstruation is a physiological phenomenon of women. It can explain many problems about the body. Sometimes menstruation is even a barometer of women's health. Nowadays, female friends are more and more concerned about their menstrual conditions.

Doctors generally believe that a delay of about a week in menstruation is normal. In fact, everyone's menstrual situation is different. Clinically, it has been found that a delay of 3-5 days in menstruation is usually not a problem. Most of the time, it is related to mental factors, mood swings, environmental changes, etc., and not to pregnancy or other gynecological diseases. Once the menstruation is delayed for more than 10 days, normal women of childbearing age should first consider the possibility of pregnancy. After ruling out pregnancy, they should go to the gynecology department to rule out other diseases.
