Can you get pregnant if you haven't had your period after giving birth?

Patient's question:

Female, 28 years old, has been postpartum for a few months, hasn't had her period, and had sexual intercourse a few days ago without breastfeeding. She wants to ask, can she get pregnant if she doesn't have her period after giving birth?

Doctor's answer:

Some women do not have their menstrual periods during breastfeeding after giving birth, but this does not affect normal menopause. As long as you are not breastfeeding, you may become pregnant. You can test for pregnancy 15 days after intercourse. If you do not want to get pregnant, it is recommended that you take contraceptive measures in the future. There are many methods for treating diseases, but since the patient's condition is different, the treatment methods will also vary. Therefore, patients need to go to a professional hospital for detailed testing as soon as possible to prescribe the right medicine.
