Patient's question:
Good friend is currently breastfeeding and has just given birth for about one month. Her husband insists on being intimate with her, but the good friend is nervous about getting pregnant again. She suggests using contraception, but her husband says that since her body hasn't fully recovered from giving birth, it's normal and doesn't require contraception. However, the good friend is very anxious. Does needing contraception during breastfeeding mean she might get pregnant again?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is possible to have menopause regardless of whether you are breastfeeding, and it may completely restore and return to your period. Some people say that you will never have menopause during breastfeeding, and you will never have your period again. This is incorrect, especially if your period completely returns and you do not use contraception, it may lead to troublesome situations again. Delivery may result in the fact that you have already become pregnant, but because you did not have your period before, you may not notice it at all. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
