Is it good for pregnant women to have their period early?

Many women still feel uncomfortable after giving birth, and may feel pain here and there, but this is not too important. The most important thing is, as we all know, women do not have menstruation when they are pregnant and giving birth, but after giving birth, menstruation will come. If it comes too early, it will cause panic among many mothers, but in fact, it may be postpartum blood. Don't be too nervous. The following is a main introduction.

Is it good to have your period come early after childbirth? That depends on how early is considered “early”. Generally speaking, if the mother recovers well, she will have her period one month after the baby is one month old. There is no problem with this time. However, if the recovery is not good, menstruation may not come until the baby is one year old. Therefore, if menstruation comes before the baby is one month old, it is actually abnormal. How long does it take for menstruation to come after giving birth?

For mothers who do not breastfeed, menstruation usually comes within 6 to 8 weeks after delivery. From a medical point of view, based on the tissue morphology of the endometrium, the ovaries may be able to ovulate as early as 33-42 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.

Breastfeeding mothers usually have to wait until 18 weeks after delivery before their period begins. Research data show that 40% of non-breastfeeding mothers resume ovulation 6 weeks after delivery; by 8 to 12 weeks after delivery, only about 35% of mothers have not resumed ovulation and menstruation. About 25% of breastfeeding mothers will resume ovulation and menstruation 12 weeks after delivery, and most breastfeeding mothers usually take until 18 weeks to fully resume ovulation function. However, it is sometimes difficult to clinically determine the exact time of the first menstrual period after delivery, and a small number of women will begin to have intermittent bleeding of small to moderate amounts immediately after delivery.
