Childbirth > Post childbirth > Menstruation Menstruation The return of menstruation after childbirth is quite variable and may take up to six months.
It may take your body a few months until you start having a regular menstrual cycle again because the hormones in your body may take a little while until they return to their pre-pregnancy levels.
Most breastfeeding mothers will resume menses about four weeks after breastfeeding has stopped, though some will menstruate while breastfeeding.
Non-breastfeeding mothers usually start to menstruate in about six to twelve weeks.
Your first period is usually different and may be very heavy with clots. It may stop and start again. It may take a few months for a regular cycle to re-establish, and it may differ somewhat in length from previous cycles.
