What Causes Irregular Periods?
Question: I m not getting monthly perionds on time
Brief Answer:
It is normal to have it after delivery
Detailed Answer:
Hello Mrs XXXXXXX thanks for trusting health care magic.
It is common to have irregular periods or no periods at all after delivery of the baby.
It takes around 6-12 months to resume normal pattern of periods after delivery and more time in case of cesarean delivery.
In case you have not had a thyroid profile testing in pregnancy then get it done but in case it was done in pregnancy and was normal then nothing to worry.
In case you have other questions I will be happy to help.
