The Return Of Your Period After Giving Birth. Of women who choose not to breastfeed, approximately 80% find their period has returned within 10 weeks. Breastfeeding can delay menstruation and ovulation for 20 weeks or more, but it is not uncommon to find your period returning sooner, or much later, than 20 weeks. There are differences among individual women and their hormone levels, so itâs difficult to say when a period will recommence after childbirth.
Periods that occur after childbirth are more vengeful than the ones that had occurred before. Womenâs and Childrenâs Health Network warns that the first period after pregnancy usually is more discomforting and comes with painful cramps. It even has a heavier flow as well.
