After taking the medicine for 21 days: Why is my period not coming yet?

I have a friend who recently needed to take some medication for physical reasons. However, surprisingly, her menstruation did not come for 21 days after taking the medication. This made her very worried and confused. So she decided to consult a doctor. After taking medication for 21 consecutive days, her menstruation was delayed. She felt very uneasy and decided to learn more about this issue.

It is very common to learn about the effects of medications on your menstrual cycle.

Many medications, including birth control pills, antidepressants, antipsychotics, etc., can affect the menstrual cycle. This is because these drugs interfere with hormone levels in the body, causing changes in the menstrual cycle.

I was taking a drug used to treat endocrine disorders. After consulting a doctor, I learned that this drug may affect the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body, causing delayed menstruation. The doctor suggested that I continue to observe for a few months to see if the menstrual cycle will gradually return to normal.

In addition to the effects of medications, it is also known that some other factors may also cause delayed menstruation, such as stress, weight changes, excessive exercise, etc. Start adjusting your lifestyle, try to reduce stress, maintain a healthy diet and moderate exercise.

If you are experiencing similar problems, my advice is to first communicate with your doctor to understand the possible effects of the medication and make adjustments if necessary. At the same time, maintain a healthy lifestyle and give your body enough time to adapt to the changes.
