Menstruation post delivery
Hi Doctor,
I had delivered a baby girl on May 1st through C section. She is 2 months now n exclusively on my feed n it's my first baby.
My question is when will I start menstruating ? And before pregnancy, I used to take crocin pain relief to ease severe menstrual cramps, can I still take that if pain arises since i m breastfeeding my 2 month old baby?
Pls advise!

You are giving complete feeding to your baby so maybe or may not be gets period now.But there is always risk of pregnancy so you have to take precautions to avoid the pregnancy.Either injection or condom.Because both are safe.

Generally if you are exclusively breast feeding thn u may not get your periods for 6-7 months but risk of getting pregnant will remain so either use condom or go for other contraceptive method after consulting your doctor
