I haven't had my period for five months after my cesarean section.

In today's society, many girls choose cesarean section when giving birth. Cesarean section has many advantages, including less trauma and can reduce pain during the birthing process. Generally, menstruation will return within 3-12 months after a caesarean section, but if menstruation does not come for a long time, you should go to the obstetrics and gynecology department for consultation in time. So, what is the reason why a girl still has not had her period five months after a caesarean section? After a caesarean section, the mother's uterus has not recovered well, the uterine wall is too thin, the endogenous hormone level is disordered, and the ovarian function has not fully recovered. Most mothers will experience amenorrhea, or a small amount of menstruation, irregular menstruation, etc. Generally, these conditions are normal. A small amount of menstruation for the first time is normal.

The resumption of menstruation after childbirth is related to breastfeeding. Women who do not breastfeed can get their period 4 to 6 months after giving birth, but breastfeeding women often experience temporary amenorrhea because breastfeeding reduces the secretion of hormones that mature follicles and suppresses the ovaries. If you still don't have your period after stopping breastfeeding for 3 months, you should go to the hospital for a check-up to find out the cause.

There are great individual differences in the resumption of menstruation after childbirth. For some women, menstruation can be resumed one month after delivery, while for others, menstruation can be resumed one year after delivery. If you continue to breastfeed after giving birth, your period may not come due to unstable hormone levels. After giving birth, you must maintain a good attitude, pay attention to hygiene and diet, and do appropriate exercise to enhance your physical fitness. As long as ovulation occurs after delivery, pregnancy is possible, so contraceptive measures must be taken after delivery.

If the mother is breastfeeding, the increased prolactin level will interfere with ovulation, causing irregular menstruation and increased menstrual flow after weaning. For new mothers who breastfeed their babies, ovulation and menstruation will resume later, and some may not have their period until a year later. It may be caused by long-term missed menstruation and thickening of the endometrium. If the menstrual flow is particularly heavy and dizziness occurs, you should be alert and go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.
