A 15-year-old girl with a two-month delay in menstruation generally does not require special treatment. This condition is usually normal at this age and is mostly due to the incomplete development of the ovarian gonadal axis, leading to irregular ovulation and delayed menstrual cycles. Menstrual cycles typically return to normal after about five years, when the gonadal axis has fully developed and regular ovulation resumes, resulting in regular menstruation.
