A member asked:
What to do if i got my period last month, now my period is 4 days late, i just had a baby. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes : It is normal to have mild differences in your menstrual cycles after having a child due to elevated prolactin hormone (creates breast milk). It is also normal after age 45 to see slight changes. 4 day difference is even normal if you weren't pregnant or if you weren't over 45.
