Hi

After delivery it can take some time for you to get back to your regular menstrual cycle, but if you are still breastfeeding your child then this could be the cause for your menstrual delay. But I would either way recommend a visit to your doctor to check on your hormone levels.

Initiating a few medications can help kick start your periods and then it should regularize from there on.

Best wishes.
