Hello Doctor,
On April 28th, I had an intimate encounter with my girlfriend, and since then, her period has not arrived, despite it being the 14th of May now. We are both teenagers and are feeling a bit anxious about the situation. We are not sure how to handle this and would appreciate your guidance on what steps we should take next.
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
1. I recommend your girlfriend take a urine pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy, as this is a common reason for a missed period.
2. If the test is negative and the period still doesn’t come, stress, diet, or physical changes could be factors.
3. If her periods are usually regular, or if the delay continues, it would be best for her to consult with a healthcare provider for further advice.
Thanks
