The female organism experienced a serious load during pregnancy and during the appearance of the baby. The metabolism, the level of hormones in the mother's body has changed. Now your main goal is to give the baby the most valuable and nutritious - breast milk. Of course, you are interested in the question "when the monthly will go after the birth." We will talk about this in this article.
Knowing the answer to it is extremely important for a woman.She should be aware of this, so as not to be afraid to get pregnant again, and generally should know about women's health a lot to avoid any problems. After giving birth, the body slowly goes into a state in which you were before pregnancy. Especially the reproductive system should be restored. When the process is fully completed, you will have a period. After childbirth (with breastfeeding), you will have to wait longer. Each woman starts menstruation individually, there are no specific dates.
In general, many women during lactationthere is no menstruation. But for some, despite this, the cycle is getting better. Remember that the onset of menstruation has no effect on breastfeeding and the composition of milk! And this is not an excuse to deprive the child of valuable nutrients.
After birth, absolutely all women appearbloody discharge, they are also called lochia. Many mistakenly mistaken them for their first menstruation, but this is not so. After the separation of the placenta from the wall of the uterus, a wound that bleeds is formed, and therefore such discharges are observed. Gradually they become light, and then disappear altogether. They can last up to 6-8 weeks. Regardless of whether you are breastfeeding or not, you will have a discharge, but with menstruation, they have nothing in common.
If at you monthly after sorts or labors (at chestfeeding) are absent for a year or more, this period is called lactational amenorrhea. This is due to physiology, since you are feeding the baby, you have lost for a while monthly. Many women during this period are not protected, but there were cases when they again became pregnant in the absence of menstruation, so doctors recommend still resorting to any contraceptives. If breastfeeding is menses, it is necessary to be protected, as the risk of getting pregnant is very high.
Only seven percent of women startmonthly after 6 months if they are breastfeeding. In many, the period of lactational amenorrhea lasts 14 months. It must be remembered that the monthly will begin when the level of hormones in the woman's body is normalized.
