What Does Delayed Menstruation In 47 Year Old Suggest?
Question: I am 47 years old, and married. I have a regular menstrual cycle, and till last month, I didn't have any problem. However, this month, there is a delay of around 1 week, but the symptoms are not like before, I am worried whether it could be pregnancy
Brief Answer:
Urine pregnancy test advised
Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
Just do a urine pregnancy test and in case negative then this delay is most probably age related perimenopausal transition which will resolve itself and eventually lead to menopause.
In case you have any questions about it, I will be glad to answer.
