Hello,
With the question "Slow period, dull lower abdominal pain is a sign of what disease? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Missing period (missing period) is an erratic manifestation of the menstrual cycle in women. Menstruation is the phenomenon of menstruating, but still no appearance of menstruation. When more than 35 days from the date of menstruation of the previous cycle, but you still have not had a period, it is considered a missed period. If there is no period for 3 consecutive periods, it is called amenorrhea.
A missed period can be a sign of menstrual disorders or pregnancy. However, your period is delayed for 1 week with dull pain in the lower abdomen, which is an unusual sign, possibly a sign of diseases: Ovarian cysts, ovarian failure, uterine fibroids, ovary inflammation. eggs,...
Therefore, you should see a specialist for an accurate diagnosis, from which the doctor will have the appropriate treatment for you.
