A member asked:

I gave birth 2 months ago. i cramp and bleed but barely bleed. is this a menstruation returning?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Darrin Cunningham answered

Hard to say: It can take up to 6 months to start your period. If you have been spotting since delivery then this is probably not your period.
