Patient's question:
I haven't had my period since production.Doctor's answer:
The time of the return of menstruation after childbirth is related to whether breastfeeding, the duration of breastfeeding, age, and the ability of ovarian function to recover. Non-breastfeeding women generally experience menstruation 6-10 weeks after childbirth, while breastfeeding women usually menstruate 4-6 months postpartum.Advice:
For women who have undergone a vaginal delivery, it is recommended to use an intrauterine device (IUD) 3 months postpartum, and for those who have had a cesarean section, it is recommended 6 months postpartum. Early insertion of an IUD may increase the risk of uterine cavity infection or uterine perforation due to poor uterine recovery.
