Menstrual delay has many possibilities for women, which may be caused by gynecological diseases, excessive stress, or anxiety. Of course, if there is sexual activity, it is likely due to delayed menstruation caused by pregnancy. So, how many days can I delay my menstrual cycle for pregnancy testing?
Generally speaking, delaying menstruation for more than a week allows for pregnancy testing. If a woman is already pregnant, the HCG value is still relatively high at this time. Women can first purchase early pregnancy test strips for self testing. If two bars are detected, they can go to the hospital for HCG testing. If it doubles well the next day, it can be basically confirmed that they are pregnant.
After confirming pregnancy, women need to decide whether to keep the fetus based on their actual situation. If they want to keep the baby, they should pay attention to maintaining a healthy diet and avoid eating greasy and spicy food. Also, pay attention to maintaining a calm mindset and not putting too much psychological pressure on yourself. You can exercise appropriately, but not engage in intense exercise.
In general, if a woman is pregnant, it can be detected by delaying her menstrual cycle for more than a week. If menstrual delay is not related to pregnancy, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination. It may be caused by gynecological diseases or endocrine disorders, and medication can be taken to regulate menstrual delay.
