Breastfeeding, Had Scanty Periods In One Cycle Followed By Heavy In The Other With No Pain. Treatment Required?
I had my baby 3 months ago and am breastfeeding . I got my period when my baby was about 2 months old and it was pretty light and lasted about 3 days. I just got my period again but it is much heavier and has been heavy for a couple days now. I was just wondering if this is normal or if I should see my family dr. I have not had any pain just very heavy bleeding .
Hi. Some irregularity in bleeding (both amount and duration ) can occur for few months after delivery. But if bleeding is too heavy you should certainly see your dr. Sometimes it is only anaemia which is causing this trouble..Once you go for a follow up she will guide you regarding things to be followed during lactation period and contraceptive advice also.Thanks.
