How long can a pregnancy test be delayed?

Menstruation is menstruation, menstruation delayed more than 7 days can be pregnancy test. Generally speaking, a woman's menstrual cycle is relatively stable, but occasionally there will be early or delayed. If menstruation delayed more than 7 days, the possibility of pregnancy will increase, then pregnancy test may get more accurate results. Because after conception, the human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) level in the body will gradually increase, and after a certain period of time, it can be detected by pregnancy test methods. After 7 days of menstrual delay, you can choose to use pregnancy test sticks or pregnancy test papers for self-test. These methods are relatively simple and convenient to operate, but pay attention to the correct method of use and the timing of reading results to ensure accuracy. If there is doubt about the self-test results, you can also go to the hospital for blood testing, HCG detection in the blood is more sensitive and accurate. However, delayed menstruation does not necessarily mean pregnancy. Other factors may also cause menstrual cycle changes, such as mental stress, overwork, endocrine disorders, certain diseases, etc. Therefore, even if the pregnancy test results after menstruation delay are negative, pregnancy cannot be completely ruled out, or other causes of delayed menstruation need to be further investigated. If you are not pregnant after multiple tests or hospital examinations, and your period is still delayed for a long time, you should seek medical attention promptly. The doctor will conduct relevant examinations and diagnoses according to the specific situation, so that appropriate treatment measures can be taken to adjust the menstrual cycle. At the same time, maintaining good living habits, such as regular rest, reasonable diet, moderate exercise, and reducing stress, is also very important for maintaining a normal menstrual cycle.
