How long does it take to get menstruation after giving birth?

During pregnancy, a woman's menstruation stops temporarily. After giving birth, her body returns to its original state and her menstruation starts again. But how long this period of time is? It is different for every woman, after all, women's individual physiques are different. So, from a medical point of view, how long does it take for a woman to have her period after giving birth?

The time of menstruation after normal delivery is not fixed. There is no fixed timetable for the question of how long it will take for menstruation to come after a normal birth. If it is early, menstruation will come after the baby is one month old, and if it is late, it may take a year. Generally speaking, after giving birth naturally, if the mother is in good physical condition, recovers well after delivery, and breastfeeds for a short time, her menstruation will resume early; if the mother's physical condition is not good, her postpartum recovery is not ideal, and breastfeeding time is long, her menstruation will resume later.

The earliest women to resume menstruation after a normal birth are those whose baby is just one month old. However, some women who do not recover well after childbirth or have poor physical fitness may take as long as more than a year to gradually resume menstruation. Compared with most women who give birth naturally, their ovarian function has basically recovered about 5-6 weeks after the birth, and the presence of the corpus luteum can be clearly observed after ovulation.

The above is an introduction to how long it takes to have normal menstruation after giving birth. Due to the differences in individual physique, physical conditions, dietary conditions, psychological factors, etc. of the mothers, the time it takes for menstruation to come after a normal birth is not exactly the same. If it is early, the mother's menstruation will return to normal when the baby is one month old. If it is late, it will not resume until the baby is one year old.
