A member asked:
Had baby 8 weeks ago, lochia stopped 6 weeks, now sudden bright red heavy bleeding, bf'ing exclusively, no bc pills, no cramps. is this a period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be.: Due to recent birth as well as breastfeeding, you will likely experience anovulatory bleeding, which can be heavy and irregular. Let your doctor know if the bleeding is extremely heavy, where you are soaking pads/tampons every hour. Take care!
