TRIBUNMANADO.CO.ID – Menstruation is something that women definitely experience.
Normally, a woman’s menstrual cycle is 24-38 days.
However, there are also women who experience late menstruation for months.
Missing menstruation for months is no longer normal.
Many things could be the cause, one of which is pregnancy.
However, what is it like to be several months late but not pregnant?
Of course as women we have to be vigilant.
It could be a sign of secondary amenorrhea.
For your information, amenorrhea is the absence of menstruation.
Quoted from Healthline, a woman is said to experience secondary amenorrhea if she does not menstruate for three months or more.
Secondary amenorrhea is different from primary amenorrhea. Primary amenorrhea occurs if a woman has never had a period at all even though she has entered puberty.
What causes secondary amenorrhea?
During a normal menstrual cycle, estrogen levels increase. Estrogen is a hormone responsible for sexual development and reproduction in women.
High estrogen levels cause the uterine lining to grow and thicken. As the uterine lining thickens, the woman’s body releases an egg into one of the ovaries.
