What Causes Long And Heavy Menstrual Bleeding After Child Birth?
Hi, I had a baby on nov. 9th, 2016. My period seemed to be normal around dec.19th lasting about 4 days but dec. 30th i started another period? After i had my baby before that baby, my period only lasted up to 3 days and was only once a month where before i got pregnant with that one my period would last for upto 7 days. I am bleeding heavier this time too.

Hi, actually after having a baby, if you are breast feeding, hormonal imbalances occur and that lead to irregular bleeding and heavy too. If periods are very heavy, then you can take some medicines to stop them. But this is a normal thing to happen. Don't worry about it. Hope I have answered your question. If you have any other query I will be happy to help.
