If a woman has a regular menstrual cycle and menstrual cycles come on time, then there is no cause for concern. However, often there are failures in the female body. If there was a delay in menstrual period of 2 days, the reasons may be different:
- stressful situations;
- hormonal restructuring as a result of the development of the menstrual cycle in the girl;
- anovulatory cycle : on average, once or twice a year, every woman has a cycle in which there is no ovulation, which is the norm and should not cause unnecessary anxiety;
- excessive physical exertion;
- abnormal body weight (anorexia or excess weight);
- acclimatization: in case of changing environmental conditions;
- presence of pregnancy;
- Breastfeeding: Menses may be absent throughout most of the breastfeeding period, and this fits within the regulatory framework. In some cases, women marked the onset of menstruation only one year after childbirth.
The first thought that arises in women in the event of a delay in menstruation even for two days is the opportunity to be pregnant. Since delay is the first sign of determining pregnancy, a delay of 2 days gives the woman the opportunity to make a pregnancy test. A positive test result can be obtained immediately on the first day of the delay, since in the presence of pregnancy the level of hCG grows exponentially.
In a separate group, you can identify the medical reasons for which a woman's period may be absent:
- dysfunction of the ovaries ;
- various inflammatory and infectious diseases of the pelvic organs;
- medical abortion;
- the period before the climax, when there is a biological restructuring of the whole organism and the monthly cycle can "gallop" for a long time;
- a natural miscarriage: this situation can be observed if the fetus has any pathology of development or violations at the level of the genetic code, as a result of which the body spontaneously gets rid of the fetus and pregnancy does not develop in the future. From the outside it all looks like the usual monthly, so a woman may not even guess that, perhaps, she was already pregnant.
In addition to the absence of menstruation, a woman may exhibit the following symptoms if she has delayed a period of 2 days:
- the chest hurts;
- pulls the belly;
- brown discharge.
In some cases, a slight increase in body temperature to 37 degrees is possible.
What if the woman has a delay of 2 days?
Excretions from the genitourinary organs of a transparent color are the norm and do not require urgent medical attention. However, if they have a different shade, a woman has pain in the lower abdomen during the period of her supposed monthly period, then she should consult a doctor, as this may indicate possible inflammatory processes in the pelvic organs.
If a test is made to determine the level of hCG in urine and it showed a negative result, it does not indicate
However, it is worth remembering that the true delay of the monthly is considered to be 5 days or more. And the full menstrual cycle can vary from 21 to 45 days, which is also the norm. Therefore, if a woman has a delay of two days, but nothing disturbs her, do not immediately run to the doctor for an appointment or buy up pregnancy tests at the pharmacy. It is necessary to observe your condition for several days and only in the case of an ongoing lack of monthly test or visit a gynecologist.
