Patient's question:
Women who are pregnant will not have their menstrual period. However, women who are not pregnant will definitely have their menstrual period. I previously had a cesarean section and have already given birth to the child. I thought I would have my menstrual period, but it has been two months and I still haven't had it. So, I wanted to ask you when women typically get their menstrual period after a cesarean section?Doctor's answer:
The time of menstruation after cesarean section is related to breastfeeding. Generally, postpartum women who breastfeed will experience menstruation 4 to 6 months after cesarean section. If formula feeding is used, menstruation may occur 2 months after cesarean section. During the time when menstruation has not returned, if sexual activity occurs again, it is also necessary to pay attention to using contraceptive measures. Because ovulation may return at any time, which may lead to accidental pregnancy, causing significant physical and mental harm to women. There are many treatment methods for cesarean section, but because the symptoms of patients are different, the treatment methods used are also different. Therefore, patients need to have timely and careful examination and diagnosis to treat the symptoms accordingly.
