Suggest Treatment For Delayed Menstruation, Abdominal Pain And Fatigue
My period is 15 days late, I was having some pain in my lower region the other day when I would walk or sit down, my stomach seems to be getting bigger, I've been super tired for the last few weeks and just today I woke up and my chest hurts not like indigestion but it's tight. Could I be pregnant? Sounds dumb...but I feel pregnant and I've taken multiple HPTs and all negative.
Hello and welcome to HCM, Pregnancy is ruled out by a negative pregnancy test. Delayed or irregular menstrual cycles are common in healthy menstruating females. Tightness in chest region, tiredness and bloating (stomach getting bigger) can be due to indigestion. Pay attention to your diet. You need to avoid foods rich in fats and take high fiber diet. Delayed or irregular menstrual cycles are commonly caused by hormonal imbalance. Thus, you need to consult your gynecologist for clinical assessment and relevant investigations like endometrial biopsy or curretings. Endometrial biopsy/ curreting will determine the status of endometrial glands and stroma. Any abnormality if detected can be managed by hormonal treatment.
Thanks and take care Dr Shailja Puri
