[|AI|]  Hi and thanks for the query, the commoner cause of delayed periods in a woman of reproductive age is pregnancy. It is advisable always to do a good pregnancy test to exclude this. However, it is not unusual to experience missed periods in non-pregnant women. Abdominal pain deserves a keen clinical evaluation. The location, intensity, aggravating and relieving factors, associated symptoms, past medical and surgical history are all important parameters in the evaluation. It would be interested in your case to have careful medical examination by a gastroenterologist. Blood tests like liver function tests, pan create amylase levels, fasting blood glucose, complete blood counts could be useful. An abdominal scan could also be very useful. I suggest you get an appointment with the gastroenterologist for a proper clinical evaluation. Luchuo, MD.
