How long does it take for the body's growth hormone to be normal after giving birth?

It takes about two months for estrogen to recover after giving birth, and 11 to 12 days for HCG to recover. Breastfeeding has a great influence on the restoration of pituitary prolactin. It takes about 4 weeks for the baby to recover if he/she does not breastfeed. If he/she breastfeeds, it takes 6 months for the baby to recover after weaning. Every time you breastfeed, the nipple is sucked by the fetus and the blood prolactin rises. The increase of prolactin can not only promote the secretion of milk, but also inhibit the secretion of FSH and LH in the pituitary gland, thereby inhibiting the production of eggs and ovulation, and thus has a certain contraceptive effect, but this cannot be used as a contraceptive measure.
