After giving birth, menstruation usually resumes in 6 to 10 weeks if the woman is not breastfeeding; if she is breastfeeding, the resumption of menstruation will be delayed, and in some cases, menstruation will not occur during the breastfeeding period.
The timing of the return of menstruation and ovulation after childbirth is related to whether or not a woman is breastfeeding. If a woman is not breastfeeding, she will have menstruation 6 to 10 weeks after delivery; if she is breastfeeding, it will take a relatively longer time for menstruation to resume, and some women may not have menstruation during the breastfeeding period, but ovulation usually resumes 4 to 6 months after delivery.
If a woman resumes menstruation later after delivery, it is advisable to use contraception during this period because ovulation is likely to have occurred before the first menstrual period, and there is a possibility of conception.
