A member asked:

My son is 15 months and my periods have not resumed. should i stop breastfeeding?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: I wouldn't recommend stopping breastfeeding only to have your period resume. During breastfeeding, your body makes more of a hormone that can suppress your periods. This isn't dangerous and breastfeeding is good for you both.
