Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi doctor, i missed my period almost 6 days. I gave birth on April 2016. My first period after giving birth is on July. My period cycle is getting regular from July. Now I miss my period. I don't want getting pregnant now. What should i do?
As a physician I would like to tell you that for 1 year after pregnancy there might be fluctuation in menstrual rhythm. I also hope that you are using some kind of contraception like Copper T or condoms following pregnancy. Also, you should take a home urine pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy. Also you should visit your Obgy doctor as soon as possible to get evaluated and examined.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Abhijeet
