Patient's question:
Postpartum, when will your period come?Doctor's answer:
The time of recovery varies, with some women experiencing their period as early as after the full moon, while others may not have it until their baby is one year old. If the mother is not breastfeeding, her period typically returns within 6 to 8 weeks postpartum. For breastfeeding mothers, ovulation and menstruation tend to return later, with some not experiencing their period until a year later. Most women have a heavier first period than usual, but the second period returns to normal, so no treatment is necessary.
