Patient's question:
The child is two and a half years old. I stopped breastfeeding the baby. Previously, my periods were very regular, always coming on the 3rd. This month, it hasn't come yet. I haven't taken a pregnancy test yet. When I breastfeed, there is a lot of milk. Will suddenly stopping breastfeeding interfere with my periods? Should I carefully observe for three months, and if my periods don't come, then go to the hospital? How can I test and make my periods come soon?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, yes. During breastfeeding or the period of stopping breastfeeding, the body's endocrine system undergoes changes, which can interfere with the timing of menstruation. However, it is necessary to rule out pregnancy before considering other factors as the cause. The above is advice on the question "Will stopping breastfeeding at two and a half years old affect menstruation?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
