What causes abdominal pain and delay in menstruation?
Patient: Hello I am 23 years old and have been on Nuvaring for 6 months now- My current period was 4-5 days late and now that it has came I am experiencing extremely bad abdominal pain from below my sternum to my pelvis. I am also very nauseous and have thrown up a few times, and have had diarrhea. 1 or 2 times there has been what looks to be a small amount of blood in my stool. I would appreciate any help as I am hurting quite badly.. Doctor: HIGreetings from Dr.Divakara.PThanks for posting your query.     Your symptoms looks like Intestinal Infection . It can happen due to bacterial or viral infection. But after going through your query I feel it is more of a bacterial infection than Viral .    Still I would recommend a Stool Microscopy test which will help us to know  what kind of infection you are having . Also kindly get an Ultrasound abdomen pelvis scan done.    Also till you get your reports , contact a doctor and get an Antibiotic prescription and Anti spasmodic drug prescription. These medicines will relieve your symptoms. Hope this information is useful to you. Any clarification feel free to ask.
