A member asked:

I give birth 2 months ago my first period was 7 days and it was normal now this time around it lasting only 2 days it was alil heavy and than it stop ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Period post partum: The first actual menstrual period (not lochia) post delivery is usually fairly heavy as Mother Nature eliminates all of the "extra" endometrial material and blood vessels leftover from the placenta's departure. Track your periods for the next 3 months to see if this 2 day duration will continue if you are not already on hormonal contraception.
