How long does it take for menstruation to come after giving birth?

Women have to go through 10 months of hard work before they welcome the arrival of their baby, but they have to take good care of themselves after giving birth. Giving birth consumes a lot of energy from women's bodies, so during the confinement period, in addition to having a good rest, they also have to supplement nutrition so that their physical condition can recover as soon as possible. Menstruation usually comes on time in March or April. Women must pay attention to their postpartum care, and family members must also give care and love to the mother so that she can maintain a good mentality.

How long does it take for menstruation to start after giving birth?

Generally speaking, a woman releases an egg every 28 days. The egg reaches the uterus through the fallopian tube, but the uterus does not know whether the egg is fertilized at this time. The endometrium only prepares for conception. Once there is no fertilization, the endometrium will be shed and then discharged from the body through the vagina. This is what we call menstruation. During pregnancy, the fertilized egg grows in the uterus, so women will not have menstruation at this time. After giving birth, the endometrium will shed again. This is a very normal physiological phenomenon.

Doctors say that if a woman is relatively strong before giving birth and recovers well after giving birth, and her functions gradually reach the pre-pregnancy standards, this type of woman will generally have her period in about four months. Under normal circumstances, menstruation will come after weaning. Since women are still responsible for breastfeeding after giving birth, most of the nutrients absorbed by the body are converted into breast milk for the baby. In addition, there are many things to do after childbirth, and most women will feel tired. It can be seen from this that compared to most women, postpartum menstruation will not come until after weaning. In addition, some women are weak before pregnancy and their postpartum recovery is not ideal. In this case, menstruation usually does not come until one and a half years later.

2. Postpartum hormone recovery.

3. Depression

4. Breastfeeding

5. Thyroid disease affects hormone secretion.

What to do if menstruation does not come?

1. You can regulate your qi before menstruation comes. The symptoms will be relieved after the qi and blood flow smoothly. Regulate the spleen and stomach. When the spleen and stomach are weak, the blood will be insufficient, which will also cause irregular menstruation or even amenorrhea. You must nourish the liver and kidneys, mainly by replenishing qi and blood. This kind of thing will not be effective in one or two times and requires long-term persistence. It will take at least three months to see the effect.

2. The main reason for absent menstruation is endocrine disorders. You can eat some endocrine regulating foods and blood-enriching foods, such as black rice, red dates, red beans, white fungus, etc. You should eat them regularly and adjust your mentality. In addition, if you don't have your period, you can also soak red dates and longans in water and drink them. I usually drink until the next day and then come back.

Women are naturally weaker, so they should pay special attention to keeping warm. In the summer, try not to eat ice cream or take cold showers. Don't wear skirts in winter, and be sure to protect your waist and lower abdomen, as these are places where you are more likely to catch cold. In addition to paying attention to it on a regular basis, if your menstruation has not come for a long time, it is recommended to see a doctor to find out the cause and take proper measures.
