Every mature woman has to go through menstruation, which normally occurs once a month. However, women's menstrual cycle may also stop at some special times, such as after pregnancy. After childbirth, most women's menstrual periods do not come immediately. Is menstruation normal after 45 days postpartum?
After giving birth, women need a period of time for their uterus and body to recover. Unless there are special circumstances, their body and uterus have already recovered after 42 days. As long as the uterus recovers, it is possible for menstruation to occur, so it is normal for menstruation to occur 45 days after childbirth. However, this situation often occurs in women who do not need to breastfeed their babies.
If the baby is breastfed after giving birth, the hormone levels in the body cannot immediately return to normal levels, and the menstrual cycle will not be normal. Therefore, most lactating women have irregular menstruation. However, every woman's physical condition is different, and even if they breastfeed their baby all the time, the timing of menstruation will also vary. Some women experience menstruation when their baby is five or six months old, while others do not have menstruation throughout the entire breastfeeding period.
But women need to understand that even if they don't have their period, it doesn't mean they won't ovulate. Some women will ovulate normally even without their period. Therefore, women cannot use breastfeeding as a contraceptive method, which is unsafe.
