Is it better to have your period early or late after childbirth?

We women all know that menstruation does not occur during pregnancy. However, menstruation will return to normal after childbirth. So when is the most appropriate time for our female friends to have their period after childbirth? Some people say that it is better to have your period earlier after giving birth, while others say it is better to have your period later. The following is a reasonable explanation for this question. Let’s take a look.

The resumption of menstruation after childbirth is a natural physiological phenomenon. The time of recovery may be early or late. Some women may have menstruation as early as one month after the baby is one year old, while others may not recover until the baby is one year old. From a medical point of view, based on the tissue morphology of the endometrium, the ovaries may be able to ovulate as early as 33 to 42 days after delivery. In addition, the presence of a corpus luteum after ovulation can also be observed 6 weeks after delivery. Therefore, if the mother does not breastfeed, menstruation usually comes within 6 to 8 weeks after delivery. As for whether menstruation comes early or late, it just depends on the specific situation of the mother, and there is no good or bad.

Don’t worry about whether it’s early or late, what’s important is to recover well. In fact, we don’t need to worry about whether our period comes early or late. There are great individual differences in the resumption of menstruation after childbirth. Some mothers welcome their "old friend" one month after delivery, while some mothers take one year after delivery to resume normal menstruation. Generally speaking, the visit of "old friends" after childbirth is related to whether the mother breastfeeds, the length of breastfeeding, the mother's age and the recovery of ovarian function. If you breastfeed regularly and your period does not come, this is normal; for mothers who do not breastfeed, "old friend" will usually come within 6-8 weeks after delivery. If you are not breastfeeding and your period has not come for more than 3 months, it is best to go to the obstetrics and gynecology department for a check-up.

It turns out that menstruation after giving birth does not matter whether it is early or late. It is just a matter of time, and there is no good or bad difference. The onset of postpartum menstruation is related to each person's physical condition. We don't need to worry about this issue. As long as we take good care of our bodies in life, we will have a healthy body. We don't need to worry about when the menstruation will come. It is all a normal physiological phenomenon.
