Periods after delivery
My first delivery was in July 2022 and it was cesarean. The baby has been on breast feed and formula feed right from beginning as there were issues with latching and supply. Baby is 7 months now and i have joined back for work. So breast feeding happens only in the evening when i am back from work and in the night, as and when he demands. My concern is that my periods has not yet started. Have heard that when breastfeeding reduces periods will resume. I am quite worried as it has not happened yet. Is it a matter of concern and if yes what is the next course of action?
One doctor has advised me to take some tablet to resume periods. Is it safe to take that or should i wait for it to happen without medicine? During delivery intramural fibroid of around 3 cm was noted fundo anteriorly. During delivery endometriosis lesions were noted over anterior wall of uterus. Before delivery my periods were regular(almost 28 days cycle) and normal.
