Hi,
During breast feeding there will be some amount of hormonal imbalance.
So the periods can be irregular due to that.
As your pregnancy test is negative, the possibility of the pregnancy is less.
And yes, progesterone can induce withdrawal bleeding.
Better to use micronized progesterone.
Once you get withdrawal bleeding, go for regular contraceptive measure with your doctor's advice.
Take care.
