Why is it that women's menstruation is delayed?

There are many reasons why women's menstruation is delayed, which may be related to physiological factors, pregnancy factors, incomplete development of gonads, menopause factors, pathological factors, gynecological inflammation, endocrine disorders, hypothyroidism, and other diseases. The details are as follows:

1. Physiological factors

1. Pregnancy factors: For women of childbearing age who have sex, the first thing to consider when menstruation is late is the possibility of pregnancy. After pregnancy, changes in hormone levels in the body will inhibit the proliferation and exfoliation of the endometrium, leading to amenorrhea.

2. Incomplete development of gonads: For women after menarche, their gonads are not fully developed and the menstrual regulation axis is not fully developed, which may lead to delayed menstruation.

3. Menopausal factors: Women between the ages of 45 and 50 enter menopause, their ovarian function declines, and estrogen levels drop, which may lead to a gradual cessation of menstruation until menopause.

2. Pathological factors

1. Gynecological inflammation: Gynecological inflammatory diseases such as vaginitis, cervicitis, and endometritis may affect the normal exfoliation of the endometrium under inflammatory stimulation, resulting in amenorrhea or scanty menstruation.

2. Endocrine disorders: Bad living habits such as staying up late for a long time, smoking, eating too much cold food, or excessive mental stress, abnormal emotions, etc. may lead to endocrine disorders and affect the menstrual cycle.

3. Hypothyroidism: This disease may further affect the patient's ovarian function, leading to irregular menstruation, and may be accompanied by symptoms such as chills, fatigue, and loss of appetite.

4. Other diseases: such as severe anemia, reproductive system tuberculosis, hypopituitarism, pituitary tumors, etc., may also cause menstrual abnormalities.

Note: It is recommended to maintain good living habits, avoid staying up late, smoking and other bad behaviors, and keep a good mood. If menstruation is delayed and pregnancy is ruled out, it is recommended to seek medical help in time.
